#52 One common goal, two opposing approaches
Most people know Verena Benz and her label Lovjoi from the fashion fairs in Berlin. But who knew that Verena first ran an organic supermarket and is now the managing director of a holding company with several fashion and IT companies? In this podcast episode, Verena introduces the five companies in her holding company. Together with Henning from MELA, she discusses challenges and the tension between fashion and sustainability. While Verena advocates the principle for her holding company "If it is not yet perfectly feasible, then we will do it anyway", Henning explains for MELA "either we develop the most sustainable solution or we leave it altogether". A common goal: more sustainability in the fashion industry with two contradictory approaches. So it will be exciting again!
