Workers making clothes for the retail giant Shein work unlawfully long hours and are paid poor wages, an independent research has shown.

And Shein transfers inventory risks to suppliers, who subsequently dump their leftover products in low-income countries.

So if any company gets any part of their products from the Xinjiang region it means they are using slave labor right? They are literally slavers.
