Built by many.
United by one goal:
ethical supply chains
worldwide.
For more than 20 years, you have known us as Sedex
The membership organisation that founded Sedex — home of the world-leading SMETA audit — is now SHL Membership — and our most ambitious chapter is just beginning.
In 2004, a group of businesses came together to share data on their supply chains, and Sedex was born. Today, that community spans more than 89,000 members across 35 sectors and 180 countries. Together, it built the digital platforms, grew the network, and drove the agenda forward.
Now, we’re entering a new phase.
We retain a significant minority stake in Sedex and its leading supply chain technology. And with new resources from this year's transaction, we are unlocking investment and partnerships to accelerate ethical sourcing, transparency and long-term impact.
