The CmiA standards include sustainability criteria for cotton, with independent auditors regularly monitoring for compliance.

“We live in an incredibly fast-moving consumer society. Only when we are aware of the consequences of our own actions, we can assume responsibility and look to the future in a relaxed way. This is what I would like to raise awareness for, and CmiA shows the right path to reaching this goal.”
Cotton made in Africa–certified cotton is grown and ginned in Africa before being processed into textiles worldwide.
Africa is a huge continent – larger than the USA, China, India, Japan, and Europe put together. CmiA is active in many countries on the continent, from Benin to Tanzania.
“Working with CmiA has made it possible for us to certify that our cotton production meets a recognised sustainability standard”. An interview with Vassirki Kone – Head of Studies and Projects at Ivoire Coton.
