Our Partnership Approach
Building partnerships and transparency
More than 150 Tier 1 suppliers in 22 countries provide us with the facilities, expertise and other resources to bring the best products to our consumers. Through our partnership approach, we aim to help improve standards not just among our direct suppliers, but in all areas where our business has influence
Transparency and Information Disclosure and ASICS Global Factory list
We believe it is important to improve transparency, including throughout the supply chain. We update our public factory list every year to reflect changes in our supply base.
ASICS disclosed our global suppliers/factories list for the first time in 2017. This list publicly provides the most recent overview of suppliers producing for ASICS.
The list covers key Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers in more than 20 countries responsible for the manufacturing of ASICS and Onitsuka Tiger products, including footwear, apparel, accessories and equipment. Together, they account for more than 90% of our global volume of products manufactured annually. We are also working to further enhance supply chain transparency by expanding visibility beyond our currently disclosed suppliers to upstream supply chain partners.
