PARTNERING SMART

Our go-to points of contact for footwear are Henry and Julia. Their can-do attitude, agility, and dedication are why we love working with them. The sample room and factory make our next-level designs and unparalleled comfort a reality. We also have a close working relationship with Gary, the General Manager on the ground in Vietnam.

CARING FOR MAKERS

FRANKIE4 shoes are made in Vietnam. Our supplier undergoes annual SMETA audits performed by Sedex—one of the world’s leading ethical trade organisations. Sedex assess the labour standards, health and safety, environmental performance, and ethical conduct of our partners.

Workers are paid above the Vietnam living wage, and our supplier complies with local labour laws regarding salaries, social benefits, working hours, conditions, and insurances.

I was pregnant with my first child and had a pipe dream to create the very best footwear for women. When we came through the factory doors, we asked (begged) Henry and Julia to make for us. Over a decade on, I’m so appreciative they took a punt on FRANKIE4.

MAPPING OUR SUPPLY CHAIN

Our supply chain consists of footwear and sock factories, leather tanneries, and farms—in addition to many other partners that provide smaller components in our shoes, such as laces and eyelets.

We’re working to map our entire supply chain across Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 suppliers. We have visibility over tanneries through our membership with the Leather Working Group. For us, every component counts—stay tuned for more information about our full supplier network.
