"I admire the TFL Community - people who are working tirelessly toward sustainable development at manufacturers. Their passion, creativity and determination contribute to a greener and more humane textile industry"

"TFL is a community where true learning meets true action. It goes beyond theory and scoring to focus on real collaboration and practical improvements. For Hanesbrands, TFL has been a unique platform to work closely with other brands sharing the same manufacturing partners, fostering cooperation instead of duplication. This collective effort has made setting and achieving ambitious year-over-year sustainability goals not only possible but also more effective and confident.“

TFL at a glance
"It has been inspiring to witness TFL from a capacity-building activity for manufacturers to a community focused on generating continuous improvements and impactful outcomes. This marks a significant shift away from viewing environmental performance merely as a check-the-box exercise."

"To the Finish Line (TFL) extends its gratitude to the GIZ Initiative for Global Solidarity (IGS) for establishing the foundation of Collective Action and Learning for Action. Building on in-country expertise and aligning with a global systems approach, GIZ has laid the groundwork for impactful sustainability and circularity efforts. TFL is committed to continuing this work to foster positive change in Vietnam’s apparel and footwear supply chains."
