Supply Chain Management
To build a sustainable supply chain, we are adjusting our procurement strategy according to global industry trends and adopting various procurement strategies according to the major categories of raw materials to diversify our sources of supply to reduce risks and ensure competitive pricing, reasonable cost, accurate delivery, and sound quality.
USI supports local suppliers. This strategy not only facilitates the growth of the local economy and local employment rates, but also effectively saves energy and time consumed in transportation, helping us to minimize the impact on our environment. Therefore, our raw materials are primarily purchased from local or nearby suppliers. The procurement situation of local raw material suppliers in 2024 is shown in the figure below, the proportion of each region is 51% in Mainland China, 7% in Mexico, and 26% in Taiwan, and 4% in Southeast Asia, and the average proportion of local procurement of integrated manufacturing plants in the global local procurement is 41%. Our strategic procurement department will continue to strengthen the management of target suppliers and select local vendors with competitive advantages to enhance the competitive advantage of the local industry and strengthen the partnership with suppliers 91香蕉在线观看.

As the supply chain is the essential link of our value chain and an extension of USI's values, we require our suppliers and their suppliers to comply with the Supplier Code of Conduct 香蕉91. Our suppliers must follow all laws and regulations of their respective countries/regions, meet labor, health and safety standards, environment, ethics, and management standards, and monitor their suppliers' compliance with the Code. In 2024, 100% of the suppliers were educated on the Code of Conduct, and we did not receive any reports or complaints of violations from suppliers.
The Code is made up of five sections. Sections A, B, and C outline Labor, Health & Safety, and Environment standards. Section D is standards related to Business Ethics. Section E outlines the elements of an acceptable system to manage compliance with this Code 九一香蕉.
USI fully understands that the overall power of procurement is a unique resource.

With the development and progress of these projects, the Company shall continue to improve overall supply chain resilience, we hope to create a mutually beneficial future for our customers, our company, and our suppliers by developing stable partnerships with them.
