Overview

International Compliance Workshop (ICW) operates a B2B sourcing and supplier-matching platform that vets suppliers for compliance, product quality and accreditation. Its database contains over 40,000 suppliers, about 80% of which are currently in China. ICW serves major retailers including Ralph Lauren, Prenatal Retail Group, Blokker, Kmart and a large unnamed U.S. pharmacy chain. The company emphasizes screening for human-rights and labor compliance using third-party certification institutes. ICW is seeing increased demand as customers diversify supply chains away from China, though certain categories (e.g., Bluetooth devices, power banks) remain hard to source elsewhere. It plans to use new funding to develop a compliance management system, a product testing platform and its B2B sourcing site. International Compliance Workshop (ICW) is a Hong Kong-based platform focused on supply-chain compliance and quality management. The company operates a platform for managing supply-chain compliance and quality processes. ICW has raised $2.52 million in a Series A financing.
