"It has been inspiring to witness TFL evolve 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."
Saskia Anders
Team Lead, GIZ
"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"
Mai Nguyen
Deputy Secretary General, VITAS
"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.“
Minh Nguyen
Sr. Manager Sustainability, Hanesbrands
