The report from the Australian Strategic Policy Institute links Bestseller brand Jack & Jones and 82 other brands to the use of forced labour.

It is a partner we are very proud of,” said sustainability manager Dorte Rye Olsen. “Together with our supply chain partners and along with industry initiatives we must be present to be able promote positive change.”
