V F CORP

The proposal requests that VF publish a report in its sustainability disclosures describing implementation of its Policy on Animal-Derived Materials, including how the company assesses animal welfare outcomes and alignment with the Five Freedoms/Five Domains and relevant third-party standards. It asks VF to disclose identified instances of non-compliance in its supply chain—including issues such as hunger, injury, poor environment, or distress—and to describe corrective or remedial actions taken. The proponent contends current reporting focuses on certification percentages and lacks transparency about animal well‑being, citing investigations alleging mistreatment in supplier operations. The resolution argues greater disclosure would address reputational, operational and supply‑chain risks and requests the information be included in future sustainability reports.
