Decision
We have decided not to invest into Gildan (GIL) due to a low valuation and slow future growth. Do note that future P/E and PEG place the company in a good place for future growth. Despite having strong ESG initiatives and scoring well on Modena's ESG rating scale, there are some concerns surrounding ethical labor practices.
