By joining the Pure Trade team, which works upstream in the value and production chain, I will be able to accomplish these missions in close collaboration with our partner factories on these criteria: reduce the use of virgin plastic and improve local recycling process, supporting and educating local and vulnerable populations involved in our industry, in favour of their well-being and autonomy.

I have always been committed to implementing a rigorous CSR policy for the group out of conviction and in accordance with my social and ethical values. Until now, we relied on the Ecovadis system with the help of an external consultant, in addition to participating in humanitarian and environmental projects in partnership with NGOs. The CSR policy has evolved so much that it deserves internal leadership. It is close to Sustainable Development and Innovation and, beyond my convictions, it has a strategic dimension. Cyrille Ly’s mission is therefore to formalize the vision and then to deploy it as a priority to employees and industrial partners,Stefane Ladous, Chairman of Pure Trade.
