Separately, in late November, SHEIN’s global head of sustainability also appeared on news channel CNA’s podcast, where he sought to debunk allegations that SHEIN underpaid its garment production workers and was environmentally unsustainable, instead attributing its low product prices due to an on-demand business model that reduces waste.
