At GFG, we are playing a part in the transition of the fashion industry’s current linear model, to one that factors in circularity principles at every stage of the product life cycle. A circular system is the long-term solution for the fashion industry, where there is minimal or even no waste throughout the product life cycle. We not only seek to incorporate circular design principles into the product we sell, but we also commit to offer end of life solutions to customers which enable them to close the loop, especially where other mechanisms to do so are limited in our markets.
