Boozt and major retailers launch unified questionnaire and digital tool to measure due diligence maturity and enable collective action across the fashion industry
Boozt, alongside six leading retailers, are proud to announce the launch of Retailer Brand Due Diligence Questionnaire and One Retail Hub.
The unified self-assessment questionnaire — co-developed by Cascale, Fair Wear, and leading European-based retailers — and free digital platform allow retailers to assess the maturity of supply chain HREDD systems, and brands to identify gaps in internal practices and receive recommendations for remediation.
[Copenhagen] - 10 February, 2026: As sustainability and supply chain data demands on fashion companies intensify, a fragmented landscape of initiatives and systems has emerged. While well-intentioned, these disparate solutions have created a significant administrative burden, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises.
To drive operational efficiency and accelerate progress, Boozt, alongside six leading retailers, are proud to announce the launch of Retailer Brand Due Diligence Questionnaire and One Retail Hub. Together, these solutions provide a unified methodology and a free digital infrastructure to streamline compliance on Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence (HREDD) for the apparel and footwear sector.
The Retailer Brand Due Diligence Questionnaire is a simplified HREDD self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ) co-developed through a collaborative effort between Cascale, Fair Wear and lead retailers ABOUT YOU, ASOS, Boozt, Ellos Group, New Look, The Very Group and Zalando. By consolidating requirements from multiple business partners into a single streamlined questionnaire, it eliminates fragmented reporting and ensures brand partners are measured against fair, universally recognised criteria.
Informed by OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains in the Garment and Footwear Sector and further sector-specific standards, this questionnaire establishes a consistent, industry-wide baseline for ethical sourcing. This allows companies to navigate a complex reporting landscape, ensuring resources are directed where they are most needed to foster a more resilient and responsible supply chain.
"By co-developing the Retailer Brand Due Diligence Questionnaire and One Retail Hub, we are reducing complexity and providing essential ecosystem support to move beyond repetitive reporting into action. With this unified, free digital infrastructure, we are removing financial and technological barriers to enable a seamless flow of data across the industry and a practical approach to HREDD. This accessible solution allows our brand partners to focus resources where they drive the most significant impact across the supply chain,” says Gloria Tramontana., Head of Sustainability & ESG, Boozt.
“Fair Wear is proud to bring our deep expertise in worker-centred due diligence to the development of the SAQ. Working with Cascale in The Industry We Want and the Retailer Round Table, we’ve created a shared, credible starting point for brands and retailers that promotes efficiency and reduces duplication across the sector. The SAQ lays the groundwork for clearer expectations, emphasising the role retailers play in encouraging brands to move toward impactful due diligence and real improvements for workers. Moreover, our organisations have the tools and guidance readily available to help brands advance in their HREDD journey,” says Annabel Meurs, Executive Director at Fair Wear.
One Retail Hub is a free digital tool built in partnership between TrusTrace and the retailers to facilitate seamless data exchange. This platform allows brands to engage with the HREDD questionnaire continuously rather than reacting to ad-hoc requests, introducing predictability into the reporting cycle.
The platform streamlines risk assessment and decision-making by offering AI-assisted completion — utilizing sustainability reports and existing documentation — and allowing brands to share responses with multiple retailers and MSIs instantly. Beyond visibility, One Retail Hub provides a data-driven mechanism to identify gaps, offering real-time results and tailored recommendations for effective remediation and corrective measures.
