adidas’ suppliers are from all corners of the globe. During its annual global supplier meetings, the company recognizes suppliers with performance awards in 7 categories. They are Digital Creation, Digital Manufacturing, Manufacturing Excellence, People, Quality, Speed and Sustainability. In 2019, FENC received global performance awards in the Sustainability and People categories, as well as North Asia performance award in the People category, making FENC the only supplier in the world to be triple-crowned within a year.

The Sustainability category evaluates supplier performance with sustainability indicators, such as the management of chemicals, energy, waste and wastewater. The People category ranks companies based on their vision, production teamwork and so on. Martin Shankland, adidas board member, made a personal appearance to present the awards. Our partnership with adidas will continue to be deepened and optimized, which will foster mutual growth.
