The programme rates manufacturers in an objective and technically well-founded way in terms of industrial and business criteria, such as their investment in machinery, the skill levels of their staff, their systems of production management, their ability to communicate effectively, etc.

The performance evaluations are always carried out in plant by the highly experienced Trigon Select assessors. The findings will be published on the 'Trigon Select database for the IAF'.

Trigon Select developed the performance evaluation and promotion programme with the German apparel industry association 'GermanFashion'.

Following GermanFashion, the IAF will work with many of its members with this new approach as an effective way to better connect supply and demand in the garment industry by increasing the transparency of the apparel supply chain. (MCJ)
