Shanghai Start-up Sets an Eco-Friendly Model for China's Clothing Wholesalers

The largest mass fashion market in the world, China’s clothing and apparel sectors are thriving.

But there’s also a small but growing cluster of young designers, labels and apparel manufacturing enterprises that are embracing a more ethical business model, making sustainable fashion the foundation for their business.
