PARTNER-LED SESSION: The evolving role of manufacturers: co-creating a collaborative due diligence framework
Feb 11, 2026 | 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Description
Organised by Shahi Exports, MAS Holdings and the Fashion Producer Collective.
This session is led by partner organisations and may not reflect the views of the OECD.
As the industry shifts from compliance to due diligence, manufacturers face a unique opportunity to take ownership of the process rather than defaulting to reactive approaches. To drive impact, suppliers must rethink their roles: agreeing on collective outcomes while empowering manufacturers to define the "how" based on their operating context.
This session facilitates a candid, constructive dialogue between manufacturers and brands, exploring how shared governance and collaborative models between buyers and suppliers, and amidst suppliers themselves, drive equitable HREDD frameworks.
