Customer COC factory inspection

Customer COC factory inspection: Code of Conduct (Code of Conduct) refers to the direct review of the implementation of social responsibility standards (mainly labor standards) established by Chinese enterprises by multinational corporations before purchasing products or placing production orders.

The content of customer certification is based on international labor standards, requiring suppliers to undertake the specified obligations in terms of labor standards and workers' living conditions.

Wal-mart factory inspection

A Walmart factory inspection is a factory audit or evaluation conducted by Walmart according to a strict system of supplier standards. Where legal regulations conflict with industry practice, suppliers should, at the very least, comply with the laws of the jurisdiction in which they operate. At present, Walmart's standard audit for all suppliers mainly includes three aspects: social responsibility (ES), quality (FCCA) and anti-terrorism (SCS). Passing Walmart factory inspection is a necessary prerequisite for obtaining orders from Walmart brand owners, among which social responsibility (ES) audit is the core part of Walmart factory inspection.
