Supply chain & sourcing
Who makes and moves this product, and where it comes from, from public sources only. It's background context, not evidence for or against any badge claim.
The brand publishes a page about its own suppliers / sourcing. This is the company's own account of its supply chain — worth reading, but not an independently verified supplier list.
What this means: This is the seller's own statement about where the product comes from. It is useful context, but it has not been independently checked.
Open sourceA company matching 'none' has filed a modern slavery / supply-chain due-diligence statement in the UK government's public registry. Such a statement describes the steps a company says it takes to check its own supply chain.
What this means: The company has filed the modern-slavery statement that UK law requires of larger businesses. Having a filing on record is a compliance step; the statement's wording is written by the company. It speaks to labour practices (most relevant to a Fair Trade claim), not to what is in the product.
Open sourceA legal entity with a matching name, 'EQUAL EXCHANGE, INC.', is registered in the Global Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) system, headquartered in West Bridgewater, US (status: ACTIVE).
What this means: A registered legal entity with this name exists, and its record shows where it is based. TilliT matched it by name only, so compare its location with the product's own label before treating it as the company behind this product. It is not a check of any badge claim.
Open sourceUS EPA facilities whose registered name matches 'Equal Exchange' have 1 record(s) in the EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database, including 0 inspection(s).
What this means: The manufacturer's facilities show up in the US EPA's environmental compliance database by name, but have no inspections on record there. This is general company background and does not bear on any badge claim.
