Eco-Ethical Practices
Fair Price:
Better price for premium agricultural products – far above the artificially-low world market price for cotton which is a result of American and European government subsidies.
This ensures organic cotton and viscose from bamboo farmers receive a fair wage so they can better feed and educate their children.
Environmental Sustainability:
Encouraging small-scale farmers to invest in sustainable farming practices which ensure the long-term health of the soil and water supplies.
Also benefits the health of farming communities by eliminating the use of harmful chemical.
