VILVOORDE – Fashion conglomerate C&A has released its 2018 Global Sustainability Report in which it stated its ambition to be recognised as the most sustainable retail fashion brand in the world by 2020 after making notable progress with relation to sourcing more renewable materials, reinventing its supply chain and interacting with both its employees and customers.
Coinciding with the launch of the C&A Foundation’s annual report, C&A has detailed the moves it made during 2018 to accelerate the sustainability of its apparel collections and business practices.
“Half of the raw materials used in our collections are sourced more sustainably, where we can clearly see that our actions are helping the environment, improving smallholder farmer livelihoods and making it easy for our customers to make more sustainable choices,” said Jeffrey Hogue, C&A chief sustainability officer.
