| Certification for fair trade and responsible supply chains |
|
| Impact, special achievements & commitments | | | VEJA is a French footwear company whose one of its main pillars is the use of sustainable materials with a positive impact on its supply chain. Since 2005 VEJA has worked with associations and cooperatives of rubber tappers located in the Amazon region, always paying prices higher than the market and establishing long-term partnerships. With the increase in production, VEJA signed in 2018 a partnership with COOPERACRE with the goal of optimizing logistics processes and reducing costs, since COOPERACRE also works with the purchase of Brazilian nuts and fruit pulp in the region. Currently, VEJA and COOPERACRE work with more than 1.300 families of rubber tappers, organized in 21 associations and cooperatives spread across the states of Acre, Rondônia, Mato Grosso and Amazonas. All of which are part of VEJA’s FFL Fair Trade Program. | ||||
