Re: C&A Global Late Shipment Policy

Dear supplier,

C&As Sourcing vision is to build a world class supply chain capable of delivering outstanding performance in

quality, delivery, price, and compliance with highly capable, sustainable suppliers with whom we have shared

values and a common business objective. To support us in tracking our progress we have defined and

implemented in 2013 a C&A supplier scorecard reflecting the five key performance indices - Delivery, Quality,

Compliance, Product Execution and Profit Contribution. Our on time delivery target is 100% for advertised styles

and > 92% for overall performance.

The commercial impact to both the supplier and retailer on products shipped after the confirmed Latest Delivery

Date (LDD) can have significant negative results on sales and profitability. It is common industry practice to

impose counter measures and penalties to offset lost margins and cover expedited handling costs on late

shipments. As a C&A supplier you have already agreed to our General Delivery Instructions (GDIs), and to betransparent, consistent, and global in our supplier policies please note C&As Global Late Shipment Policy below.

Below are the most common areas which can be addressed to improve on time delivery performance.

1. Proper capacity planning and only accepting orders which can meet the agreed delivery dates,

manufactured within C&A approved production facilities

2. Proactive communication and problem solving on potential delivery issues

3. "First Time Right" approach in both sample development and in delivering quality products to the

Inspection Centers or Distribution Centers

4. Critical path management of raw material commitments including nominated sources to ensure on

time delivery

Building world class sourcing capabilities together,

Sincerely,

Barbara CaalimDirector of Global Sourcing Management EU
