Boohoo Group

Boohoo Group's Leicester factories paid workers as little as $4.40 per hour, exposing a modern slavery model that is 50% cheaper than the average fast fashion brand's labor costs. While Primark (#5) relies on opaque Asian supply chains, Boohoo's UK-based exploitation was documented in one audit, yet the group never fundamentally reformed its operations, with 60% of its suppliers still flagged for wage violations as of 2023.
