Boohoo under fire for re-hiring supplier let go in modern slavery scandal


Boohoo has come under fire for rehiring a supplier it fired following its modern slavery debacle. Reports said that after having “disengaged” in 2021, the fast fashion behemoth is again buying clothing from GN Euro once more. The clothing company used to sell Boohoo products from its factory in the UK, but after being shut down, it has opened a new location in Morocco under a different name, where it is once more doing business with the online retailer. When a Sunday Times undercover reporter visited a facility where workers were receiving less than the minimum wage in 2020, the controversy first gained attention. Since then, as part of a purported ethical revamp, Boohoo has released a list of suppliers worldwide.
