PARIS – French fashion resale firm Vestiaire Collective has attained B Corp certification in recognition of its high social and environmental standards.
B Corporations, of which there are around 4,000 globally, are subjected to rigorous assessments which measure a company’s work across five impact areas: governance, workers, customers, community and environment.
“We are incredibly proud to become the world’s first globally operating and large B Corp certified resale platform! It’s a huge step on our way to transforming the fashion industry. “We hope it is only the beginning of a broader move that will trigger even more commitment among our industry and community of fashion activists.”
