Modern Slavery Statement 2025

At Moss, we take our responsibility to operate ethically and responsibly with the utmost seriousness. This statement outlines our ongoing commitment to preventing modern slavery and highlights the steps we continue to take across our operations and supply chain.

Group Structure and Supply Chain

Moss is a limited company specialising in men’s formalwear and casualwear. As of the date of this statement, we operate:

• 114 stores across the United Kingdom and Ireland

• An e-commerce website

• A head office based in London

While our heritage is British, our operations and supply chain are global. Our products are manufactured by third-party suppliers based in:

• China

• Bangladesh

• Vietnam

• Sri Lanka

• India

• Italy

• Portugal

• United Kingdom

We recognise that exploitation of individuals and violations of workers’ rights are well-documented global issues. We take all reasonable steps to ensure that we do not knowingly source goods from companies that exploit workers or engage in unethical labour practices.

Our policy on slavery and human trafficking

Moss has a zero-tolerance approach to slavery and human trafficking. We are committed to ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in our business or supply chains.

Our ethical trading programme is managed by the Head of Technical and Production, who oversees all activity in this area. While we are not a formal member of the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI), we work closely with all suppliers and their factories to ensure alignment with the ETI Base Code, which includes:

• Employment must be freely chosen

• No use of forced, bonded, or involuntary labour

As part of our internal processes:

• Proof of eligibility to work in the UK is required for all new employees and verified during recruitment

• All employees must comply with our internal Policies and Procedures

• Our Equal Opportunities Policy promotes fairness and supports a safe, inclusive workplace

• We maintain systems to encourage the reporting of concerns and to protect whistle-blowers

Due diligence process

We have implemented and continue to maintain due diligence measures to identify and mitigate risks related to modern slavery in our supply chain.

Key actions include:

• Ongoing identification of potential risk areas within our supply chain

• Development of remediation plans where risks are identified

• Long-standing, trusted relationships with suppliers

• Annual visits to key supplier sites where possible, conducted with regional representatives

• Issuance of regular supplier questionnaires to ensure compliance with the ETI Base Code

• Review of supplier ethical audits and follow-up on corrective action plans as needed

Training and awareness

To support our policies and promote awareness:

• All new staff are introduced to Moss policies during their induction process

• Company policies, including those related to ethical trading, are accessible via The Hub (our internal intranet)

• Employees are encouraged to familiarise themselves with our commitment to ethical practices and to raise any concerns

Looking ahead

Moss remains committed to continuous improvement in our practices to prevent modern slavery and ensure the fair and ethical treatment of all individuals connected to our operations and supply chain.

This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our modern slavery statement for the financial year ending 2025.
