Our Approach
At ECCO, we want to be good corporate citizens, wherever we work. We work by clear principles that stipulate that we will behave in a correct and decent manner. Our commitment to being a responsible company is incorporated in the ECCO Code of Conduct.

The ECCO Code of Conduct provides information to guide employees and partners around the globe so that they conduct business in accordance with the company's ethical standards. Corporate responsibility includes how we behave towards our employees, communities, the environment and our business partners.

We Own and Manage Every Step
ECCO is the only major shoe manufacturer to own and manage every step in the shoemaking process. This allows us to carefully monitor and control the impacts of all our operations. As a large employer, ECCO understands its responsibility and accepts it.
On the Agenda
We want our business to grow sustainably and responsibly in a way that supports employees and communities and promotes environmental stewardship. The 10 commitments in ECCO's Code of Conduct form the basis of our business strategies and they are an integral part of management decisions and daily operations throughout the entire ECCO Group.
Partnership, Openness & Education
Corporate responsibility is an ongoing process of improving our standards, our actions and our processes. We believe that we can achieve better, long-term results through teamwork and cooperation with our business partners. To ensure that our business grows responsibly, we have developed a Global Audit Programme based on the key words of partnership, openness and education.
Idea Management
Idea management has become one of our main success factors in achieving business progress. We prioritise idea implementation in our own operations, and we encourage and support our business partners in the continuous improvement and innovation process.
