Reach your supply chain climate goals through decarbonisation as a service.
Generation 1 is the first-of-a-kind initiative, combining strategic decarbonisation planning with financing and execution in sourcing markets.
Why
Leading fashion brands have committed to decarbonise their supply chains and almost half the emissions reductions needed in the sector can be achieved through existing solutions.
Yet brands are struggling to make progress on their goals because of:
Misalignment between sustainability and sourcing teams
Lack of execution capacity in production countries
Lack of affordable capital for producers
How
Generation 1 combines decades of experience in sustainability, sourcing, finance and manufacturing to tackle the barriers holding back supply chain decarbonisation.
We offer a full service to enable brands to achieve scope 3 reductions through: decarbonisation strategies + brand-manufacturer aligned roadmaps backed by execution capacity and affordable finance.
Our mission is simple: remove the strategic, operational and financial barriers that prevent brands from achieving real Scope 3 reductions.
Define your approach
Generation 1 enables brands to build a decarbonisation strategy and programme that is grounded in the reality of sourcing countries.
We provide tailored support, depending on whether you are starting out to identify hotspots, setting targets or working to align procurement and sustainabilty goals.
Build your plan
Working with your suppliers, we define factory specific decarbonisation roadmaps which plan for emissions reductions over time.
These roadmaps enable you to build a decarbonisation roadmap for your brand that is grounded in supplier specific data and decarbonisation plans agreed with your producers.
Finance and implement
Through our strategic partners, we offer solutions to your producers to finance and deploy rooftop solar and other decarbonisation solutions.
