Come and celebrate with us 20 years of amfori BSCI!
Who would have thought that a joint project that started 20 years ago between amfori (back then known as the Foreign Trade Association – FTA) and the German Society for Technical Cooperation would have led to a leading service for social due diligence: amfori BSCI (short for amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative)?
amfori 2023 Annual Event is the place to be to reflect on this journey and what the future holds. Join us to celebrate a progress that is also yours!
