"Gap Inc. has consistently pursued higher standards for their business practices - combining fiscal responsibility with responsible practices on environmental and social issues. In tough times, a strong reputation and a commitment to transparency, as Gap Inc. has demonstrated over the years, is an absolutely necessary part of doing business."1 - Jay Whitehead, Publisher and Editor of CRO Magazine, in March 2009. "Since its inception in 1998, the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) has galvanized a broad spectrum of corporations, NGOs and trade unions to bring about widespread change for workers around the world. We value Gap Inc.'s strong commitment to ETI and encourage the company to continue its leadership role on key issues such as integrating ethics into core business practices and encouraging stronger relationships between suppliers and worker organizations."2 - Dan Rees, Director, Ethical Trading Initiative3, in 2008.
