Sweden-based H&M says it has taken the decision to “gradually phase out operations” in Myanmar.
The fashion retailer also announced it had launched an investigation into 20 alleged instances of labour abuse at Myanmar clothing factories, just weeks after rival Zara owner Inditex said it was phasing out purchases from the Southeast Asian country.
