MANGO's response to non-payment of wages at Alema Textile & Mim Design

Considering the significant social mobilizations that occurred in Bangladesh last year, our suppliers have reported economic disruptions affecting their operations. Mango has been closely monitoring the situation and, despite our efforts to maintain orders, these challenges presented by the global market and other brands have occasionally impacted their performance.
