# BECOME A PARTNER

 Partnering with Clothing Retailers for a Sustainable Tomorrow

As a clothing retailer, unsold items can pose challenges. Unsold stock not only occupies precious warehouse space but also represents a missed opportunity. You may be concerned about waste, about not utilizing items to their fullest, and about the environmental implications of unsold clothing. Every day that unsold inventory sits is a day a potential difference in the community isn’t made. Not to mention, the cost implications of holding onto aging stock.

### Did you know

- **Over 100 million tons** of textiles are discarded worldwide every year.
- **60% increase** in clothing purchases by the average consumer compared to two decades ago, yet items are kept for only half as long.
- **85% of discarded textiles** in the U.S. end up in landfills.
- **30% of clothing** produced will never be sold, indicating wasteful production practices.
