Profuomo Wins the Circular Sourcing Challenge and takes steps towards a sustainable Future

During the Circular Textile Days, Profuomo was announced as the winner of the Circular Sourcing Scorecard, an initiative led by The Fabric Connector, tex.tracer, and Clean & Unique. The Circular Sourcing Score is a simple and accessible tool that allows fashion brands to assess their sourcing processes in terms of circularity. By completing a series of questions, participating brands gain insights into their strengths and areas for improvement in circular fabric sourcing.

Profuomo’s commitment to transparent and circular sourcing

Profuomo emerged as the winner after successfully completing the questionnaire and demonstrating a strong commitment to improving their sourcing processes. As part of the award, tex.tracer will map the supply chain of 100 Profuomo products. This comprehensive supply chain mapping ensures that every stage of production, from raw material to finished product, is visible and traceable. By shedding light on every link in the chain, Profuomo will be able to make informed decisions that support sustainability and circularity at every level.

"Profuomo will receive complimentary guidance from The Fabric Connector, who will assist in identifying the most circular fabric solutions for each mapping. Their advice is backed by the expertise of Clean & Unique, a leading platform for sustainable practices. For over 17 years, Clean & Unique has been helping brands advance towards a more sustainable fashion industry."

Harry van der Zee, CEO Profuomo - "Winning this award is a wonderful recognition of the time and effort we, as a brand, dedicate to making our supply chain more transparent and sustainable. Above all, my congratulations go to the entire team at Profuomo, whose commitment truly makes the difference."

We are proud to partner with The Fabric Connector and tex.tracer to help Profuomo achieve their sustainability goals."
