Dacca, May 15 (RHC)-- In Bangladesh, garment factories have reopened despite nationwide remain-at-home orders, with workers reporting minimal protections and no enforcement of physical distancing measures.
This comes as Bangladeshi suppliers say some of the biggest retailers in the fashion industry — including The Gap, Urban Outfitters and Walmart — are using the pandemic as an excuse to force manufacturers to sell their products at a deep discount, while withholding some payments for completed orders.
