Sustainability

DOING GOOD TO PEOPLE AND PLANET

Our industry needs to change at a broader level, and that change starts with us.

At C&A we have a clear purpose: we inspire you every day to look, feel and do good. We want to offer our consumers high-quality, affordable, and stylish clothes that are manufactured in a more sustainable way.

We believe that business can be a force for good. To contribute positively and reduce negative impacts, we are pursuing a comprehensive sustainability strategy, in which we have clearly defined environmental and social goals. To reach those goals, we are also building alliances, work closely with industry partners and start-ups. We are convinced that operating in an open, transparent, and collaborative way will contribute to positive change and help our customers making more informed choices.

Our approach to sustainability is embedded into our purpose to inspire everyone, every day, to look, feel and do good. We are committed to mitigating our impacts and risks and integrating sustainability seamlessly into our business decisions.
