Retailer Bishopston Trading has been ranked as the most ethical clothing company in the UK.
The company has been given an �Ethiscore� of 16.5, the joint highest ranking in the authoritative Clothing Report compiled by Ethical Consumer magazine.
This means that anyone buying clothes, gifts or household items from Bishopston can be confident that the item has been ethically produced along the supply chain and taking into account stakeholder engagement, auditing and reporting and environmental issues.
Carolyn Whitwell, director of Bishopston Trading, says: �We are delighted to have our work recognised in this way. We are committed to ethical trading and have shown that this can go hand in hand with offering shoppers great clothes and household accessories at affordable prices.�
The accolade for Bishopston comes at a time when an increasing number of customers are questioning the origin and human cost of their clothes.
