Uniqlo does not use Xinjiang cotton, boss says - BBC Business

Quick Summary:

It is the first time the CEO of the chain's owner, Fast Retailing, has directly addressed the issue.

But to achieve that, Uniqlo needs to expand not just in China but also in the West, where shoppers are increasingly conscious of human rights issues such as forced labour.

Even though Uniqlo has been expanding aggressively in Europe and the US, in Mr Yanai's own words, "we are not a known brand globally" and Asia is still its biggest market.
