In 2020, we added the Supplier CSR Commitment as an incentive. From 2022, the Supplier CSR Commitment is a prerequisite for priority assessment of all new suppliers.
By 2021, a total of 35 suppliers sent back the commitment. We already progressively requested suppliers to sign and abide by the commitment and revised the internal SOPs to add the commitment as one of the criteria for new supplier evaluation. Currently, new suppliers of major production materials are requested to sign the commitment. In the future, we will perform irregular onsite audits on the compliance with the commitment.
