The Don’t Sweat Shop supports supply chain transparency and the project hopes to raise awareness of ethical purchasing practices available to its audience. Every item available for purchase in the Don’t Sweat Shop will be clearly marked with all of the information available about how it was produced, where the raw materials were sourced from and the conditions in which the item and the raw materials were produced

By making this information freely available to the consumer, the Don’t Sweat Shop hopes to encourage similar levels of enquiry from audiences in their role as consumers in their everyday lives. The Don’t Sweat Shop believes that how and where we choose to spend our money is one of the most powerful and persuasive agents for change available to us in post capitalist, industrialised societies. By supporting organizations that have considered the health and welfare of their staff and the environment in their business model, we are supporting the larger goals of sustainability, equality and goodwill in our global community.
