Selfridges launches sustainability initiative
26/08/2020
                    
                        The core of the project centres around the company’s new commitments on materials and a pledge that by 2025 they will only stock products that adhere to their new sourcing standards. For leather, suppliers must show evidence of working towards a traceable supply chain starting at the abattoir. Only tanneries rated Gold, Silver or Bronze as audited by the Leather Working Group will be accepted.
Another initiative, Repairs Concierge, aims to help customers give much-loved items a second lease of life. Repair experts offering in-store or online consultations will help identify the services needed to make clothing, bags, jewellery and shoes as good as new.
