Chinese fast fashion brand Shein faces challenges going public, amid scrutiny of supply chain conditions
In November 2023, it was reported that Chinese fast fashion giant Shein was preparing to go public on the New York stock exchange. The company has faced criticism for its human rights and environmental record, including poor working conditions in its supplier factories - the subject of a 2022 Channel 4 documentary. In February 2024, it was reported that Shein was exploring a London IPO instead, as New York was too difficult.
