Infatti, la maggior parte dei fornitori esaminati č sicura le loro catene di rifornimento č pił adeguatamente sicura accertare la sicurezza dei loro prodotti. Indeed, nearly 80% of respondents (all of whom were manufacturers who currently manufactured their products in China) reported that they felt no need to review their supply chain activities in the wake of the well-publicized toy and toothpaste recalls.
