FACTORIES AUDITED IN RISK COUNTRIES We are aware of the responsibility that comes with sourcing goods in countries with different legal standards and labour conditions. New Wave Group strives to continuous- ly improve working conditions in the global supply chain (read more on page 28). An important tool is third party audits. Our goal is to include all our suppliers in amfori BSCI or an equal monitoring system and that the audit should result in a good grade. The number of audited factories is increasing every year.

Priority areas are primarily where we have direct impact by transportation and logistics (read more on page 32).

During 2018, the emissions from transportation were heavily reduced as a result of less number of shipment with improved fill rate. 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Air 2511 1586 1767 1790 1236 Sea 1857 1762 2501* 7852** 3804 Air 338 187 218 234 154 Sea 11080 9783 Goal Comments Zero vision for air freight.
