A Hot Cuppa Fashion!<\/a><\/p>\n

While we were in India we were surprised and very, very pleased to be featured in an issue of Business & Economy magazine.\u00a0 We are featured along with a few other companies as “the latest brewing in ethical fashion”.\u00a0 Well we are flattered to be included in fashion although most of the garments we sell are very\u00a0straightforward – \u00a0for example organic t shirts.\u00a0 The company clothing industry on the whole requires good quality, colour fast garments which will fit a range of employees.\u00a0 I believe if we were too fashionable e.g. figure hugging t shirts we would not meet our customers requirements.<\/p>\n

The question I ask every week, or even more often is\u00a0 “Are the enough customers who want to consider sustainability, social responsibility and fairness for Cotton Roots to be sustainable?”\u00a0 Impact Trading (my original company) still supports Cotton Roots but every order we get for Fairtrade polo shirts, every new customer who commits to the ethical options we offer, \u00a0gives me a thrill.\u00a0 Really!<\/p>\n

Most recently Chester Zoo has started to purchase from us their staff uniforms.\u00a0 They now have organic trousers and Fairtrade aprons.\u00a0 We are hopeful that \u00a0when our new bottle green, \u00a0Fairtrade and organic polo shirts arrive\u00a0that the zoo also change to these garments.\u00a0 On a visit to Chester Zoo recently with Helen we met Brendan who made us most welcome and showed us around.\u00a0 They are so committed to ethical sourcing generally which includes food, water and now uniforms.\u00a0 I was impressed. \u00a0 www.chesterzoo.org<\/a>\u00a0 Helen is in discussion with a number of other zoos so watch this space for more news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
