3 Aug 2026 Zhengzhou Synear Food Co., Ltd.UFLPA list: frozen food manufacturer Zhengzhou Synear Food added USAForced and child labour Order

The U.S. Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force (FLETF) added the frozen food manufacturer to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) Entity List because it works with the Xinjiang government to take in Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz or members of other persecuted groups under state labour transfer programmes. The company's goods are therefore presumed to have been produced with forced labour on import into the US unless the importer rebuts this.

What organisations can take from it

Food importers should also check suppliers outside Xinjiang for involvement in state labour transfer programmes.

3 Aug 2026 Guangxi Kelun Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.UFLPA list: antibiotics manufacturer Guangxi Kelun Pharmaceutical added USAForced and child labour Order

The U.S. Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force (FLETF) listed the manufacturer of cephalosporin antibiotics because it sources antibiotic intermediates from Yili Chuanning Biotechnology in Xinjiang.

What organisations can take from it

Pharmaceutical companies must be able to trace their supply chains back to active ingredient intermediates.

3 Aug 2026 Shandong Weiqiao Pioneering Group Co., Ltd.UFLPA list: textile group Shandong Weiqiao Pioneering Group over Xinjiang cotton USAForced and child labour Order

The U.S. Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force (FLETF) added the cotton and textile producer to the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) Entity List because it sources cotton from Xinjiang. The company's goods are therefore presumed to have been produced with forced labour on import into the US unless the importer rebuts this.

What organisations can take from it

Textile retailers need proof of origin for cotton down to the fibre, for example through isotope or traceability testing.

23 Jun 2026 Needle Craft Ltd.; Casual Wear Apparel LLCCBP import stop for textiles from Jordan's Needle Craft and Casual Wear Apparel USAForced and child labour Order

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued a Withhold Release Order: clothing from Needle Craft Ltd.; Casual Wear Apparel LLC (Jordan) is being detained at all US ports of entry because there are indications of forced labour (ILO indicators including physical and sexual violence, retention of identity documents, restriction of movement and withholding of wages). These are two parallel orders against both manufacturers.

What organisations can take from it

Fashion brands should supplement social audits at garment makers with confidential worker interviews, because violence and confiscation of identity documents remain invisible in paper-based checks.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued a Withhold Release Order: copper and copper products from Serbia Zijin Copper D.O.O. (Serbia) are being detained at all US ports of entry because there are indications of forced labour (ILO indicators including withholding of wages, intimidation, restriction of movement and retention of identity documents).

What organisations can take from it

Production in Europe is no free pass either: raw material and metal supply chains need their own forced labour checks.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued a Withhold Release Order: bicycles, bicycle parts and accessories from Giant Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (Taiwan) are being detained at all US ports of entry because there are indications of forced labour (ILO indicators including debt bondage, withholding of wages, excessive overtime and abusive working and living conditions). Detained shipments can be destroyed, re-exported or released upon proof of admissibility.

What organisations can take from it

Recruitment fees for migrant workers are a core risk – suppliers should demonstrably bear them themselves.
