The Dutch company TextileGenesis has expanded its partnership with the Spanish fashion group Mango. TextileGenesis, specializing in traceability solutions for the textile and fashion industry, will provide Mango with comprehensive support in the transparency of its supply chain.
The collaboration began in 2023 when Mango first tested TextileGenesis’ Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. During this time, the Spanish company was able to trace over 6,000 tons of sustainable fibers and more than 40 million products along the entire value chain, according to the Dutch partner. In addition, over 1,000 suppliers from 23 countries were involved, giving Mango insight into its entire value chain – including conventional materials, leather and shoes.
TextileGenesis was founded in 2018 by Indian entrepreneur Amit Gautam, a former manager of Austrian fiber manufacturer Lenzing. The company has been part of the French technology group Lectra since the end of 2022. Its platform enables fashion brands and manufacturers of sustainable textiles to digitally, securely and verifiably trace the supply chain, from the fiber to the finished product, and helps to identify legal and compliance risks.
“The need for transparent supply chains has never been more urgent than it is today,” emphasizes Gautam. TextileGenesis wants to support Mango in achieving its sustainability goals and building a consistently transparent value chain.
Following the successful tests, Mango will now implement an expanded set of digital tools, including the “Fiber-to-Retail” module for certified sustainable fibers and the new “Supply Chain Discovery” for traceability from the end product to the material origin.
With the formal partnership, Mango is taking the next step to further digitize its supply chain and prepare for future sustainability requirements.
