The best thing to do is to offer the goods or to chain the traders!!!!

Hello bluekoala, thank you for your contribution. I clarified this immediately with the relevant specialist agency. In Sri Lanka, monkeys are not used to harvest coconut. The harvest at the cooperative http://www.mopalk.org/ is done either by the farmers themselves and/or day laborers who are employed as harvest workers. Kind regards, Luisa

I think it's great! But how is it controlled? ↵↵Migros doesn't know what it looks like on the palm oil plantations, traceability is not a given, as was recently revealed. ↵↵I can also make a phone call and assure you it's never sunny here on Lake Constance. As long as no one has been here to check if that's true, you just have to believe it. And of course it's sunny here😋

Hello Bodenseeknusperli In order to ensure socially responsible manufacturing conditions for all its products, Migros requires its business partners to comply with the amfori BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) Code of Conduct and to monitor working conditions using internationally recognized social standards. We are aware that this commitment alone is not enough, which is why we have a large number of inspections, known as amfori BSCI audits, carried out annually by independent third-party companies. The third-party companies are recognized by Social Accountability International (SAI), a globally recognized non-governmental organization. Best regards to sunny Lake Constance, Angela
