Katie Ioanilli, chief global impact and communications officer, said the company is “very clear on how we treat animals in our supply chain.”
“Our policy commits us to the respectful treatment of animals, which we believe together with other practices can contribute to species conservation and the protection of ecosystems,” Ioanilli said. “We are aware of the PETA report. We, along with other Sustainable Fiber Alliance members, await additional information that would better help us assess the situation and if appropriate to take action.

More importantly, I believe we have created the right foundation to continue building the future of our company.
