Renfro Brands, a sock and legwear maker based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, said it will expand its use of Inspectorio's AI-enabled supply chain platform beyond the quality risk management software it already runs, adding responsible sourcing, regulatory compliance and traceability capabilities. The expansion was announced in an Inspectorio press release dated June 17, 2026, and reported by Supply Chain Dive on July 16, 2026. The stated aim is to replace manual processes with AI-driven workflows, measure supplier performance, and verify supplier compliance with social and environmental regulations specific to sourcing locations in North America, Europe and Asia. An Inspectorio spokesperson said Renfro is using Paramo, the vendor's intelligence layer that connects business data to AI copilots, generative AI features and autonomous agents. Todd Roeder, Renfro's VP of compliance and vendor services, was quoted in the release; Renfro declined to comment.
