Sustainability is not a marketing slogan. It is a practice that production must observe in every step of the fashion chain. Goel Community has long emphasized t...he environmental benefits of using handwoven, naturally-dyed fabrics, which they include in all of their production. Naturally dyed materials, when later discarded, decompose easily and avoid the risk of chemicals seeping into our food chain. Allpa’s commitment to sustainability is communicated through every practice of theirs. By creating products from renewable materials and resources, they are fighting to preserve the planet for generations to come. In using renewable energy, Allpa has chosen to put the planet and people first. Transparency is Maggie's Organics’ specialty. A visit to their website brings up a list of every product under their label and the full journey each material took towards its creation. From farming with organic crops to limiting waste in their production line, Maggie’s Organics is fully committed to sharing the story behind their name. Mehera Shaw has committed to using low-impact fabrics in their production process, so as to commit to a workplace of sustainability. Their linen, certified organic cotton, artisan textiles, upcycled textiles and Azo-free dyes ensure that consumers have power in supporting truly sustainable products.

The choices we make as consumers have a great impact on the livelihoods of the communities where products are grown or crafted. By choosing to buy Fair Trade an...d ethical products, we generate a financial flow that goes back to the artisans, farmers and, in turn, their families and communities . Spreading wealth throughout the community does not only accelerate economic growth, but also enhances the possibility to invest in projects and practices that respect the planet , while people can enjoy fairer and higher standards of living. Think of ethical consumption as a wave that has multiple positive ripple effects. The power to generate this change is in your hands! #FairTrade #FairTradeProducts #FairTradeSolidarity #Ethical #PeopleandPlanet #EthicalProducts #EthicalConsumption #ResponsibleConsumption #GivingBack #CommunityEmpowerment
