Kristi Soomer, Encircled CEO honoured with the Clean 50 Award

Excerpt from Clean 50:

At responsible fashion company Encircled, it’s not just the “Reversible Bandeau Bra” that goes in a circle… Through working exclusively with Canadian sewing contractors, she is able to save any extra fabric cuttings from the creation of her larger designs, and transform what used to be waste-to-landfill into scrunchies, leg warmers, headbands and the aforementioned bras. Manufacturing locally also ensures fair wages, high quality, good working conditions, as well as fewer emissions from transportation.
