Disney to stop sourcing apparel from Pakistan

07/04/2014
Textile manufacturers in Pakistan have told local media that the Walt Disney Company will stop sourcing apparel from the Asian country on April 30.

Disney threatened to take Pakistan off its list of approved sources of apparel at the end of 2013, but waited until April 1 before giving its suppliers the news that the ban will come into effect. It said Pakistan had failed to improve its governance standards in the textile supply chain.
