Show Notes

This week we had the chance to chat to Miran Ali, spokesperson for the STAR Network, a network of Asian producer associations in the apparel and footwear industry.

Our main episodes focus on the STAR Network and its recent call for minimum standards on purchasing practices. But as with any good conversation, our chatting sometimes got a little off topic.

As a result, we have a short bonus episode for you. Miran shares more details about Bitopi Group, the manufacturing company he manages in Bangladesh. He also shares bit about the innovative sustainability projects Bitopi is leading, and how he’s overcome obstacles like access to financing and weak returns on investment.
