CARDIFF, Wales, December 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

DeSL, a global company delivering integrated web based solutions for the Fashion, Apparel, Textile and Footwear sectors, will be demonstrating the latest advancements in technology for managing Ethical Trading and Compliance at NRF 2013.

With fashion companies facing increased exposure to a range of social and ethical issues in the supply chain, DeSL's iPad applications have been designed specifically to ensure ethical compliance and enable inspection teams to perform stringent product and quality audits at factory locations. The DeSL application enables clothing companies and fashion brands to fulfil this due diligence in the most thorough yet simple way, preventing the likelihood of negative publicity as a result of potential negligence in social and ethical management.

The solution is built around the concept of close collaboration between vendor and company, sharing required information and processes via the Internet. Many vendors are located remotely from the company it is supplying, in different time zones, so a real time web based solution is the ideal solution.

During NRF 2013, DeSL will be hosting a complimentary Fashion PLM Seminar at the New York City, TRYP Hotel and will include a demonstration of the Apps which help manage the whole Ethical Trading and Compliance process. Colin Marks, CEO, DeSL commented, "Our global customers, particularly those with suppliers in the Far East, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka  are already using the iPad Apps to meet and exceed their requirements for Ethical Trading and Fair Trade. Fashion companies can now ensure all quality and inspection steps are being followed stringently and consistently across all businesses and divisions, with the ability to build and use a database of all inspections performed, over a range of user defined criteria, to enable tracking and traceability in all levels of the supply chain."

Colin continued, "This is an extremely important topic, so for any fashion companies looking to tighten up their processes and fulfil their Ethical Trading and Compliance obligations, we would encourage them to attend our complimentary Fashion PLM & Design Seminar in NYC 15^th January, 2013, 3pm-5pm where we will demonstrate the solution in practice - all they need to do is visit the DeSL website to register their place."
