I know that when I would source materials for private labelling or my own distribution in western Canada, I would certainly visit the suppliers. It was not only to assure yourself that they would able to capably supply what you wanted and supply it correctly, so that it would work and be a good product, but also so that you would have an opportunity to walk the floor of the shops to see what kind of circumstances they have there. I'm probably not leaning that heavily on doing a personal safety inspection, but all of that is relative. When you walk into a factory, you get the initial impression of the dynamics there.
When I visited Gildan's factory in Haiti, I got a very good feeling that it was a professional operation, although that's their own brick and mortar.
If you are sending your people in to do these inspections, do you have risk assessors and corporate safety people too for your projects here, for your own buildings?
