Apparel’s third annual Sustainability All Stars program found five companies, including Anvil Knitwear, determined to drive difference for people and planet — bringing profits along for the ride.
Winners were chosen based not on specific criteria in particular categories, such as use of organic materials, energy policy, wastewater management, recycling initiatives or social issues, but for demonstrating a commitment toward making their businesses more sustainable in specific ways, and a plan to continue down that path.
