Recherchetool für Materialien Ethiopia is a North Star – Grim Conditions and miserable Wages guide Apparel Brands in Their Race to the Bottom As global brands continue their relentless quest for low-cost production locations, Ethiopia is emerging as a coveted destination. This report presents the results of an investigation of the labor rights environment in Ethiopia’s growing textile and apparel export sector.
