The ECCO Family
To illustrate the truly international character of ECCO, you need look no further than the extended ECCO family. With more than 17,000 employees from over 50 countries, ECCO is a genuine multinational business, a mix of nationalities, cultures, languages and backgrounds. ECCO’s Danish headquarters alone is home to people from more than 20 nations.
We believe there is strength in diversity. That welcoming and encouraging diversity provides a deeper understanding of the countries and cultures in which we operate. As an additional benefit, of course, it also enhances communication between ECCO’s subsidiaries, departments and units across the globe.
We are proud of this and we are committed to maintaining and developing ECCO’s long-standing endeavours to encourage people, the young and not so young, from all nationalities and backgrounds to join the ECCO family.
Almost all employees at ECCO’s headquarters, and many across the world, have attended our “cow to shoe” induction courses where all participants learn how to make their own shoes. As a result, they gain true insight into the complexity of shoemaking and a profound respect for our colleagues in ECCO’s production units. Moreover, ECCO offers its employees advanced professional courses and, wherever possible, prefers to promote from within the company. By doing so, we enhance the sense of family and ensure that our people and products remain at the heart of our business.
