Sustainability Reporting
We believe that business can be a force for good. And we want to do our part to contribute positively and reduce negative impacts. To this end, we are pursuing a comprehensive sustainability strategy, in which we have clearly defined environmental and social goals. Our three strategic sustainability objectives are Renew & Restore, Innovate & Lead and Unite & Inspire. They form the foundation for our activities, which aim to minimize our environmental impact, push for more sustainable materials and circular fashion, and ensure decent working conditions and transparency. C&A Europe reports progress annually against the 2028 Sustainability Strategy. Our sustainability report discloses data and information specific to C&A’s European retail market and operations.

Sustainability reports & resources
The GRI Standards, UN Global Compact (UNGC) principles, UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the OECD Due Diligence guidelines provide the frameworks for our global reporting. In addition, C&A retail markets might report against other standards to comply with local requirements and address local stakeholder interests.
