“90% of the fashion industry’s impact comes from material production. The goal is to provide access to the 95% of information that we don’t have usually, instantly, so managers can make better decisions and shift towards a better solution in their supply chain.”
- Annie Cyr, Founder & CEO of Tengiva
Enabling textile manufacturers and emerging brands to trade in-stock textiles on a digital marketplace.
The textile industry has been slow to change its wasteful practices and fast-fashion’s frequent production cycles are only exacerbating the problem. The lack of transparent market data leads to 35% of the ~$1 trillion of annually produced textiles sitting idle or ending up in landfills.
Tengiva considers the textile industry’s biggest pain points while converting global brands and suppliers to sustainable, efficient sourcing practices. In addition to upcycling within the marketplace, the data that Tengiva’s platform collects enables full circularity by facilitating recycling partnerships that transform waste back into raw materials.
