Veja
Veja is a French footwear and accessories brand founded in 2004 by Sébastien Kopp and François-Ghislain Morillion. The brand name means 'look' in Portuguese, inviting customers to examine what's behind their products. Veja is renowned for its commitment to sustainable and ethical production, creating sneakers with organic cotton, natural rubber from the Amazon, vegetable-tanned leather, and recycled plastic bottles. All production takes place in Brazil, working directly with organic cotton farming families in North Brazil and wild rubber tappers in the Amazon rainforest. Unlike traditional fashion brands, Veja spends no money on marketing or advertising, instead investing five times more in workers' conditions, production quality, and sustainable materials. The brand has gained international recognition, worn by celebrities including Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton, and has sold over 14 million pairs across 71 countries with a team of more than 500 people.
