The ECIP Leadership Circle recognizes produce suppliers who demonstrate exceptional commitment to strengthening labor practices and advancing the principles of the Ethical Charter on Responsible Labor Practices. These industry leaders are credibly engaged in ECIP LAB by actively supporting their growers, assessing workplace conditions and ensuring continuous improvement at their operations. Their dedication supports a more ethical, transparent and sustainable produce supply chain, one where responsible labor practices are foundational to doing business.
Suppliers that reach all five stars in their Engagement Profile qualify for the 2026 Leadership Circle. Suppliers will be notified once they enter the 2026 Leadership Circle.
2026 Leadership Circle members can access logos, brand guides and use guidelines to use in branding and promotional activities. Representatives of companies in the Leadership Circle can contact support@ethicalcharterprogram.org for access.
