Factory audit

As an international super retailer, Carrefour will carry out a series of assessments when selecting partners. We usually call it "Carrefour factory inspection". Factory inspection is mainly carried out by a third-party audit organization, sometimes by Carrefour's own audit department. The content of factory inspection is mainly to audit the social responsibility (human rights) and quality management system of the factory. The audit results are divided into four levels: ABCD. The AB level is acceptable. The C level needs follow-up audit while the D level cannot cooperate with Carrefour. Carrefour audits suppliers according to ICS standards. Generally, an official report will be submitted to the factory within 15 working days after factory inspection.
