TOP 10 – SUSTAINABLE FASHION BRANDS
Gucci reduced its greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2 and 3 by 32 % since 2022 and it achieved 99 % overall traceability of its raw materials in 2024. Women hold 63.5 % of positions in the brand and make up 58 % of its managers. Its Changemakers initiatives supported US $ 640,000 in grants in North America and more than 11,000 hours volunteered in 2024 to support NGOs. Its parent company Kering was among the first to adopt science-based targets for nature in 2024, including a freshwater quantity target for direct operations including its owned tanneries and factories and upstream suppliers.“ Science-based targets for nature will help enable companies to do their part in reversing nature loss and I hope other companies in our industry and beyond will commit to these targets to advance ambitious and measurable corporate action on nature,” says Marie-Claire Daveu, Chief Sustainability and Institutional Affairs Officer at Kering. sustainabilitymag. com 43
