Gustaf Asp, MD of Treadler, said: “We see the opportunity to utilise the full potential of H&M Group’s extensive investments and progressive sustainability work by catering to clients’ needs and contributing to driving long-term growth for H&M Group, while driving change in our industry.

“In discussions with other companies, we have experienced a demand for these kinds of services.”
