GFW has initiated a traceability program beginning with coyotes. To enroll in the program Fur producers are asked to sign a basic declaration stating that they are operating within the parameters of the law, using legal techniques etc.
Many of GFW's and others's clients from around the world are requesting/requiring that fur purchased be traceable in the near future, that they will need to be able to prove goods purchased/used comes from a reliable country of origin that has strict laws/controls such that the fur is produced in the most ethical, legal, and humane fashion as possible, is the desire.
For now the program begins with coyotes, but is sure to spill over into other species. For now, it seems as tho brands of EU origin are requesting and/or demanding this in order for fur to be sold into their jurisdictions. This is no small thing, in order to retain these markets, we must be able to prove origin/traceability to ensure we have willing product brand/lines to sell to in the future.
Just a little forward thinking!
