These include farmers, ginners, merchants, middlemen, traders, mills, manufacturers, sourcing agents, retailers, and brands involved in cotton procurement or engaged in fulfilling Better Cotton Mass Balance orders.

“Through our Better Cotton auditing services, we aim to empower all stakeholders throughout the cotton supply chain to achieve the highest standards of production and sourcing of ethical, traceable and sustainable cotton. This commitment aligns with our mission to bring quality, safety and sustainability to life, ensuring our partners benefit from our science-based and forward-thinking auditing experience.”
Intertek stated that its approach extends beyond conventional audits, prioritising capacity building and continual improvement within the dynamic cotton industry.
