Primark and DFID to Improve Factory Conditions in Bangladesh and Pakistan

Irish fast-fashion retailer Primark has partnered with the U.K.’s Department for International Development (DFID) in a bid to better working conditions for garment workers in developing markets...The news came a few weeks after shoppers came forward to say they had found notes allegedly written by Chinese slave workers in pairs of socks sold by the chain. China, however, isn’t on the list of countries set to benefit from this pairing...Primark, an Ethical Trading Initiative board member, said it will work with DFID to improve the health and wellbeing of local laborers, bolster national economic development and help alleviate poverty in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Myanmar, Ethiopia and India.
