  When people hear about the fact that clothes factory workers in poor countries work day and night on little pay, they feel worried if their clothes are from factories of this kind. They begin to ask about how and where their clothes are made, and who makes them. The provenance of clothes has now become an important fact, and more and more shoppers pay attention to it and ask for it.
