CCC - Germany Labour force at a discount price. A good deal for all?

Globalisation and discounting are closely related. About 90 percent of our clothing is produced in Asia, Central America, Eastern Europe and several countries in Africa. The majority of retailing companies, such as also the discounters Lidl and KiK, buy from these countries. The "Alternative Movement for Resources and Freedom Society" (AMRF) examined the buying practices of discounters and the working conditions in six selected suppliers of Lidl and KiK in Bangladesh. The results - massive violations of labour and human rights - are presented in this brochure.
