That shift places pressure on retailers and brands to back up supplier sourcing claims with accredited third-party verifications consumers can access independently. In response, sterling silver jewelry manufacturing facility Phoenix Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is rising to the occasion by expanding their public-facing transparency framework. The newest addition to their framework is the Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP) verification for their manufacturing facility in Samut Prakan, Thailand.
