Li & Fung first began its distribution business in the U.S. in 2005 and then expanded to Europe in 2008. By working closely with brands and retailers, Li & Fung addresses their specific needs in the areas of design, sales and marketing, and distribution as well as managing the supply chain. The Company's distribution operation consists of three pillars: private labels, proprietary brands and licensing of recognized brands.

In the area of private labels, Li & Fung helps retailers produce finished products under a private label or in-house brand. To develop proprietary brands, the Company takes nationally recognized brands and builds exclusive lines of merchandise for retailers.

The Company offers a comprehensive menu of logistics solutions, from warehousing, transport, repacking, customs brokerage, freight forwarding, hubbing and consolidation, and other value added services, including supply chain analytics and value engineering work.

At present, they have partnered with local, international and multinational brand owners and retailers to help them optimize the flow of inventory and information to reduce cost and improve service level. They have been able to adapt to changes occurring in the industry as the fashion industry is dynamic and it is bound to change after a certain period of time.

At a basic level, their Supplier Code of Conduct provides a clear statement of labor and environmental commitments for their approved suppliers. The Code is based on local and national laws and regulations as well as the International Labor Organization's core

conventions. These include underage labor, involuntary labor, compensation, working hours, discrimination, disciplinary practices, freedom of association, health and safety, environmental practices and the right of access. Li & Fung employs over 130 in-house dedicated vendor compliance colleagues worldwide who regularly monitor compliance and work with suppliers that produce their customers' products, in line with their own Code of Conduct and industry-defined and customer-specific audit standards, protocols and methodologies. Suppliers are rated and approved based on designations ranging from Satisfactory to Failed (Zero Tolerance) and/or customer specific designations. They work with their customers, suppliers, non-governmental organizations and experts to implement energy, water and pollution reduction initiatives, as well as raise labor standards. To ensure product safety, quality and regulatory compliance, they have put in place rigorous internal processes backed by a team of 2,600 global Quality Assurance / Quality Control colleagues.
