How do we Embrace Equity at ECOM?
Today, on International Women’s Day, we’re reaffirming our commitment to the women in our business. We value, respect and empower women at every step of our supply chain – amplifying their voices and cultivating long-term equality in their communities.
By fostering innovation, we’re empowering women to develop deep expertise and to use their diverse skills to make a meaningful impact. This includes providing catered support by investing in gender equity programmes and training women farmers to adopt innovative farming practices.
We’re thankful to all women that contribute their invaluable skills, time and knowledge to our business.
