The global Covid-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on global garment supply chains, and the situation will get far worse before it gets better.

The result has been the partial or complete shutdown of thousands of factories in producing countries. As a result, millions of factory workers have been sent home, often without legally-mandated pay or severance.
