Production and sustainability
Garments are made in Portugal, chosen for its compliance with international labour standards. The brand publishes information about its factories, including a video tour, and has a public code of conduct. It discloses its supply chain traceability level and set a goal of full traceability by 2025. It works with Green Story to calculate its carbon emissions and invests in carbon offset projects, and its manufacturing uses a closed loop process that recycles 99 percent of the water used. The brand also donates new garments to local women's charities and works with organisations that employ new immigrants.
Why it matters
Hernest Project shows how a small direct to consumer label can use detailed supply chain disclosure as a central part of its positioning.
