Making Sustainable Fashion the New Normal Global Sustainability Report 2018
At C&A, we believe everyone should be able to look and feel good every day, while supporting a good quality of life for those who make our clothes and a healthy planet. We want our customers to trust us to do the right thing, so they can buy our products without having to choose between what’s sustainable and what’s not.
Towards a new normal
We are working towards a vision of the new normal – where sustainability is just another word for normal. To achieve our vision of fashion with a positive impact, our sustainability work is focused on the areas that are most relevant to our business and where we can have the biggest impact - our products, our supply chain, and people’s lives.
Sourcing and producing our clothing in a way that respects people, the environment, and animals. Pioneering circular fashion by designing clothing with its next use in mind.
Sustainable Supply
Making a positive impact on our sourcing communities by ensuring that the people who make our clothes are safe and treated fairly. Supporting a clean environment wherever we operate.
Sustainable Lives
Empowering our customers, supporting the livelihoods of the workers in our supply chain, and engaging our employees as sustainability ambassadors.
