CARPASUS (Switzerland)
CARPASUS is a sustainable fashion start-up company based in Switzerland. We launched our first collection in 2016 and offer high-quality clothing made from sustainable materials under fair working conditions and a fully transparent supply chain.
WHY TRADE MATTERS TO US
"The textile industry has always been a highly internationalized industry.
Global trade facilitates access to markets e.g. for the small-scale farmers in India, where we source our organic fair trade cotton from.
Trade – done sustainably – should not only create economic value but also reduce poverty and preserve our precious environmental resources."

WHAT REFORMS CAN HELP US DO MORE
"As a Swiss company, exports are essential for us to grow our business. To enable international growth, we would appreciate fewer trade barriers and fewer tariffs on exports. We would also like to see more solutions tailored to small businesses in the areas of internationalization, logistics, and access to finance.
On a global level, we call for social and environmental standards, sustainable trade and investment in the green economy."
