Sustainable Origin program | Sustainability Management

What is Sustainable Origin?

A certification for Brazilian companies in the footwear production chain that incorporate sustainability in their production processes according to indicators in five dimensions: economic, environmental, social, cultural and sustainability management.

The Sustainable Origin Program is managed by ABICALÇADOS - Brazilian Association of Footwear Industries and ASSINTECAL – Brazilian Association of Companies of Components for Leather, Footwear and Artifacts which, as managing entities, are responsible for the certification process linked to the Sustainable Origin Program.
