The latest rankings on international brands' environmental performance in the China supply chain was jointly released by the Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC).

The rankings are based on the Corporate Information Transparency Index (CITI), which collects public data on areas including government compliance, online monitoring, confirmed public complaint records, self-reporting and third-party environmental audits.

This year's ranking evaluated 267 international brands that run businesses in China. A total of 25 Chinese brands were ranked among the top 100.

A green supply chain is conducive to environmental protection. As core enterprises with strong corporate social responsibility tend to select suppliers with remarkable green performance, more suppliers will be forced to meet environment protection rules to promote green production modes.

The following are the top 10 brands with the best green supply chains.
