Your business has been successful for a number of years now. Your competitive advantage is the low cost and good quality of your products.
You have learned that one of your key suppliers has been hiring laborers under age 16 and requiring them to work for more than 40 hours per week. This factory has consistently met your quality requirements and sent products on time. You are worried though that a news story may get out about this supplier’s business practices. You decide to tell the boss that you will fire this supplier and hire another.
What are some PROS to your decision?
