A new report published by Solidaridad Europe and the Pesticide Action Network UK (PAN UK) has found that the vast majority of international fashion companies are failing to address the sustainability challenges of cotton production.
The report, titled “Cotton and Corporate Responsibility,” found that only 9 of the 82 largest cotton-sourcing companies in the world are sourcing 99% or all of their cotton from certified sources. The remaining 73 companies are either not sourcing certified cotton at all or are only sourcing a small percentage of their cotton from certified sources.
