A Monster Leap Forward

Beverage Company tackles modern slavery in its supply chain -

The global sugar industry is notorious for forced labor. Even though Monster uses vast amounts of sugar, last year it said flat out it was uninterested in the risk of modern slavery in its products.

Thanks to you, Monster did an about-face.

It started putting industry best practices in place. Already,

• Most of their staff has been trained in supply chain anti-slavery practices

• Almost all their suppliers have been audited

• They’re setting up a supplier anti-slavery training platform

This transformation took place in record time — a case study in what’s possible when shareholders and management work together.

Monster credits As You Sow for its new, ethical approach. That credit goes to you. Bringing the risk of modern slavery to Monster’s attention is creating real change, for real people.
