The Danish Council for Sustainable Business Development
As a global brand ECCO has a clear obligation to live up to the standards that consumers rightly demand of our shoes. We view the daily challenge of ensuring viability as an exciting task. Our ambition is to influence the whole of sustainable development in a direction that ensures that future generations will not be at risk. This means focus on the environment, society and economy. Sustainability is not just a national matter. The production chain is world-wide – as are environmental concerns. It is therefore a considerable task to ensure global sustainability. A task that no company can perform alone. ECCO has therefore joined forces with 18 other Danish companies, all of whom are globally-oriented. This is a broad circle of progressive Danish commercial companies that have founded the "Danish Council for Sustainable Business Development". In this unique forum many useful experiences are exchanged between companies that operate in many of the same countries as ECCO.
