India's Mohini Knitwares and seven top designers in India – a major importer of Australian wool – as well as Pakistan's Bonanza Garments, have also pledged not to use the cruelly obtained product. US-based giant SmartWool has struck a 7-year deal worth US$30 million to buy New Zealand merino wool from farmers who end mulesing by the end of 2005.
“This latest version of AWI's claim is just another crude attempt to forestall the inevitable, which is that the wool industry must stop mutilating lambs and exporting live sheep to slaughter”, says Newkirk. “AWI is a dinosaur that is emptying farmers' coffers rather than helping to modernise the industry by introducing humane reforms.”
