Since 2022, in light of a global shift inspiring higher standards in supply chain compliance and human rights, Sayari has partnered with TOMS to streamline the socially conscious footwear company’s supply chain risk management program and help protect its supply chain integrity.
TOMS Shoes had always taken pride in its Supplier Code of Conduct but saw this as a moment to verify its impact with greater precision than ever before.
Sayari stood out as a clear winning choice among peers during rigorous testing aimed at proving business impact. TOMS selected Sayari for its:
- Data quality: insights draw from authoritative sources, such as corporate registries and bills of lading.
- Breadth of coverage: data spans 250+ jurisdictions worldwide, including hard-to-access regions.
- Intuitive design: Graph deploys in minutes and delivers immediate value.
- Trusted by regulators such as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Sayari’s global knowledge graph goes beyond simple watchlist screening, allowing TOMS to visualize complex corporate structures and detect hidden ownership links. With this technology, the company has efficiently ensured that transparency and human rights are upheld at every single step, from the raw materials to the finished shoe.
“I’m happy that we had already implemented Sayari and had an established supplier vetting process in place before the tariffs were announced and supply chains needed to shift.”
Empowering trade compliance to preserve operational integrity amid tariff disruption
TOMS’ partnership with Sayari has enabled the company to automate its data collection, entity resolution, supplier screening, and continuous monitoring for quick and accurate due diligence. Thanks to these efficiencies, TOMS has navigated supply chain shifts resulting from tariff announcements without compromising its mission-driven standards.
Multi-tiered supply chain visibility has helped TOMS quickly adapt to regulatory changes, safeguard the integrity of its products, and uphold its brand’s promise to “Use Business to Improve Lives,” ultimately preserving the integrity of their supply chain.
