      <title>China compliance wall raises proof over production in apparel sourcing</title>
      <link>https://www.fibre2fashion.com/news/apparel-news/china-compliance-wall-raises-proof-over-production-in-apparel-sourcing-310951-newsdetails.htm</link>
      <description>China’s 2026 compliance decrees are reshaping apparel sourcing by making supply-chain data harder to collect and transfer. 
As global traceability demands rise, competitive advantage will shift from low-cost production to verifiable proof of origin, labour and supplier links. 
China remains central to textile supply chains, making transparency (not relocation) the key sourcing challenge.</description>
