health and safety regulations. Peridot products will be tested for lead content before being imported or sold to the consumer. Peridot products will also be tested for cadmium and other toxic chemicals. Our products will not contain chromium and nickel, which usually cause allergic reactions.

Peridot is dedicated to also ensuring that our employee’s working conditions are up to standards and follow regulations such as the International Labour Organisation (ILO), Which deals with health and safety in mines, handling of chemicals, emergency preparedness, and the right of employees to report accidents to local authorities.


internal policies Suppliers will be required to regularly fill out survey on factory conditions in comparison to Peridot’s code of conduct. If factory standards are deemed acceptable, the suppliers will also sign a copy Peridot’s code of conduct with understanding that they are expected to meet these ideals. All suppliers will undergo regular inspections by a representative of Peridot. These inspections will be accompanied by training sessions with factory management to ensure both parties are of the same understanding. Suppliers are required to report all or any of their subcontracted factories. These factories are also subject to inspections and unannounced audits. Factories will always have the opportunity to redeem themselves if at first they do not reach Peridot’s standards. Peridot is willing to reexamine factories on the basis that they again fill out our survey and understand each of our requirements. Peridot hopes to inspire factories to create better facilities for their workers.


external policies Peridot will adhere by the RJC, Responsible Jewellery Council as a way to ensure our code of conduct is being tested and met. The RJC was started as a way to “Clearly define the ethical, social and environmental standards applicable to all stakeholders in the gold and diamond jewellery industry, to Promote and facilitate the implementation of these standards and to Ensure the implementation of these standards is verified through independent third-party monitoring.” Certified Responsible Source through SCS global is an SCS certification that will assure Peridot customers that we are doing our best to use recycled metals and gemstones and that we avoid purchasing metals or stones through unreliable or illegal sources. It also confirms that Peridot meets the standard for sustainable manufacturing processes in our supply chain. Peridot aims to source Fairmined Gold Certificated gold. “Fairmined certification signals that your gold and associated precious metals are mined from small-scale and artisanal mines (ASM) following strict requirements for environmental protection, fair labor conditions, and economic development in mining communities.”


logistics Peridot will be sold in store at luxury boutiques located in NYC and LA such as Bird, Steven Alan, Oak, MM. La Fleur, and Curve. The collections will also be sold through Net-a-Porter. Peridot will also be available online through Peridot’s website. Products for Peridot’s website will be stored at their office and products for third party sellers will be delivered directly from factory to sellers. Peridot products will be shipped by air from the Nottingham East Midlands in the UK to New York City. The distance is 2942.13 miles and the transport time is 8 hours. The shipment would have a freight of $615, an origin cost of $117 and a landing cost of $105. Due to the proximity of the UK and the US, an air shipment is cost and time effective. Vipa designs, our chosen supplier includes shipment management as part of their services. Peridot will work with Vipa to obtain these shipping goals.

country analysis Every one is conflict-free and mined according to strict standards of environmental and social responsibility. Their mining is carried out for fair wages and under safe conditions, and their profits help their home countries promote sustainable development and invest in community infrastructure.


location Proximity to the U.S., Peridot is searching for low freight costs and short lead times from port to port.

sustainability At Peridot, it is our obligation and moral duty to sustain the natural environment to the best of our ability. The environmental practices within each country of interest must align with our own values. fair labor laws Fair treatment amongst employees is top priority. Peridot will ensure that each country meets the basic living standards and proper working conditions. technology In a tech driven world, it is imperative that each country possess the technological power to produce innovatively and efficiently.

trade agreements Ideally, Peridot would want to work with a country with FTA’s in place with the U.S. However, ease of trade, low tarrifs and taxes are also important factors to consider.

cost Keeping in mind the impact on the environment, our employees, and our end customers, Peridot plays close attention to the cost of our items and payment of our workers.

sustainibility. The UK is committed to sus-

tainable development as a nation. There are various policies in regard to the apparel and timepiece industry that regulate greenhouse gas emission, and the reduction of energy demand in the industry. The Responsible Jewelry Council is also headquartered in the UK. This council is the leader in ethical jewelry production and is part of Peridot’s code of conduct and goals to be certified by the council. labor laws. United Kingdom labour law regulates the relations between workers, employers and trade unions. This law covers various topics from human rights in the workplace to salary and benefits, minimum in the UK for employees above the age of 25 is 7.50 P, and below the age of 25 varies from 5.60 to 7.20 P.

technology. The UK’s infastructure investments

are at an all time high. The Infrastructure and Projects Authority was formed in 2015 out of two seperate government sectors with the goal of providing expertise in the financing, delivery and assurance of all infrastructure projects such as Crossrail and the Thames Tideway Tunnel.

While the UK’s tech industry was initially behind in the global race, the nation has recently been the destination for many tech investments. According to the Telegraph UK, “the number of companies in London’s digital technology sector has grown by 46pc since 2010. In addition to the companies themselves, London now boasts an increasingly successful support infrastructure, including venture capitalists such as Index Ventures, accelerators, incubators and workspaces. Outside London, a number of areas - and not just Cambridge - are also successfully attracting tech start-ups.”

trade. The UK’s exit from the EU has ignited a

conversation on trade agreements between the two nations. Prime Minister May and President Trump have both expressed excited about a new trade agreement to be negotiated. However, as the UK is still technically part of the EU there are not able to negotiate deals yet. These agreements might also take many years to take action as the US is still to work with the EU on the TransAtlantic Trade Agreement and the UK’s top priority is negotiation a trade deal first with the EU after their exit to provide a smooth transition to companies. Whether this agreement would affect Peridot’s business is hard to say. Until this agreement is finalized, there are currently no trade agreements in effect.

cost. According to Searates, origin charges

for shipping jewelry from the UK to the US would be $797 and the landing charges $637. This does not include the cost of the shipping container.


location. England is one of the 4 countries that make up the United Kingdom. The close proximity between UK and the United States make it a very attractive sourcing location. According to searates, the average air shipment time between the UK and New York port is 8 hours, while a sea shipment in a 20 ft container would take approximately 17-27 days of transit and

sustainibility. Top environmental issues fac-

ing Italy currently include air pollution from transportation and industrial sources, polluted inland waters, acid rain, and insufficient industrial waste treatment and disposal programs. Most of Italty’s environmental policies fall under EU environmental legislation. However individually, Italy is pushing initiatives designed to reduce black carbon emissions, particularly in the transportation sector.

labor laws. Italy does not have a unified code

for labour standards. However there are many policies that touch on freedom of association, fair pay, annual paid vacation, protection of women’s and minority rights, and social insurance for old age, illness and accidents. There is no set minimum wage (hourly/annual wage is set forth in the employee’s contract).

technology. Italy has a fairly modern and

productive infrastructure. However it is inefficient compared to other European countries of the same size. While the peninsula is well connected through an extensive system of railways, expressways, national roads, airports and seaports. Other projects have failed to be completed such as a metro system in Naples and more railroad systems from south to east for the transportation of goods. Much of Italy’s infrastructure was developed during WWII and requires constant upkeep due to natural wearing.

trade. Transatlantic Economic Council (TEC)

started in 2007, the co-chairs meet at least once a year to discuss the EU and U.S.’s relationship related to trade and job markets; focus is on reducing trade barriers, aligning standards and expanding market access to strengthen the respective economies EU-U.S. Open Skies Agreement - Signed in 2007, allows airplanes belonging to the EU or U.S. to fly anywhere in the respective nations air space The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) - Signed 1947 with the intention of reducing tariffs and trade barriers; Now managed by the World Trade Organization (WTO) which was established in 1995 and has committees that overlook trade between all participating countries.

cost.-According

to SeaRates, an air shipment of jewelry from Italy to the New York City would have an origin cost of $112 (including domestic transportation fees) and a landing cost of $105 with a travel time of 12 total hours. While a sea shipment would cost $749 at origin (including domestic transportation fees) and $107 at destination with a travel time of 15-33 days, 14 of those days at sea.


location. Italy is located in southern Europe and is in the heart of the mediterranean sea. Nearly all of it’s borders are water, making this location partial to sea transportation. Italy is a part of the EU.


I\ I\ D\ N\ A\ sustainibility. The Sustainable Development Agenda was created in 2015 at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. The SDA is comprised of 17 goals for 2030, for the entire world, but specifically certain countries including India. The goals include no poverty, end hunger, good health and wellbeing, quality education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, decent work and economic growth, industry & innovation and infrastructure, reduced inequalities, sustainable cities and communities, sustainable consumption and production, climate action, life below water, life on land, peace & justice and strong institutions, and global partnership. While these goals will be a big difficulty for India to tackle, they pose great benefits for long term sustainability as a country and for businesses like Peridot’s investment. labor laws. While India’s government at federal and state level have aimed to provide protection to all workers, in practice,

legislation only protects a minority of India’s workers. India is run under a federal form of government and because labour is qualified under the Indian Constitution, it is under the jurisdiction of both central and state governments and both governments have enacted unique laws in regards to labour. 48 hours per week for adults, 4.5 hours per day for younger workers (no more than 9hrs/day) Entitled to paid days off Maximum of 200 overtime hours per year Women are not allowed to work between 10pm 5am. technology. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, “Minister of Road Transport and Highways, and Shipping, has announced the government’s target of Rs 25 trillion (US$ 376.53 billion) investment in infrastructure over a period of three years, which will include Rs 8 trillion (US$ 120.49 billion) for developing 27 industrial clusters and an additional Rs 5 trillion (US$ 75.30 billion) for road, railway and port connectivity projects.”

India is listed as 35th out of 160 countries in the World’s Bank Logitics Performance Index India’s government is also taking initiative in investing in infrastructure. In the next three years, they have plans to open 50 additional airports, 10 of which should be operational in the next year. trade. The United States and India have a Trade Policy Forum that according to the United States Trade Representative Office positively impacted “engagement on bilateral trade and has increased trade and enhanced the overall economic relationship.” and that “ two-way bilateral goods and services trade reached $109 billion in 2015,”. cost. According to Searates, an airshipment of jewelry from India to New York City would cost $114 at origin and with a landing cost of $105. While a sea shipment would have an origin cost of approximately $1,000 and a landing cost of $107.


location. India is located in South Asia, and is the 7th largest country by size and 2nd largest by population. It shares borders with Pakistan, China, Nepal, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Bhutan, as well as the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. This largely populated country lends a great deal to the manufacturing industry, and the ocean borders create easy sea transportation. While India is quite far from the United States, it offers other unique benefits as a sourcing location. According to Searates, an air shipment of jewelry from India to New York City would take approximately 18 hours while a sea shipment would take between 22 and 35 days.


supplier analysis The next step following selecting our countries is to select and assess our suppliers and manufacturers. At Peridot, our multidimensional CSR allows us to better ensure that vendors in the program protect basic human rights, labor and environmental standards wherever they operate around the world. Keeping this in mind, profit will be positively affected and most importantly - our suppliers we do business with will meet our expectations.
