Mango joins TextileGenesis pioneering traceability solution, a Lectra company, for a transparent value chain

Mango, one of the leading international fashion groups, has joined TextileGenesis, the pioneering traceability solution for the fashion and textile industries, to trace their natural and animal fibers, synthetics, man-made cellulosic fibers and leather. TextileGenesis, a Lectra company, offers a complete and secure cutting-edge technology with its six-dimensional (6D) offering and unique “fiber forwards” approach. Mango, has long been committed to maintaining a fully transparent supply chain, and TextileGenesis will reinforce this commitment.


Strong results since go-live

Since the collaboration began, Mango has traced over 6,000 tons of sustainable fibers and more than 40 million finished product units across its value chain with TextileGenesis. The platform has also enabled Mango to engage over 1,000 supply chain actors in 23 countries, creating visibility well beyond certified fibers to include conventional materials, leather and footwear.

Renowned for placing fashion at the heart of its business model, Mango has continually driven creativity and expansion since its inception. The company is distinguished by its unique design and style, emphasizing a quality that aims to surpass competitors. As an international group, they lead the pace of the fashion industry by innovating with the latest technologies and moving increasingly towards sustainability. Mango is wholly committed to transparency across its supply chain with the will to go further, and that is where TextileGenesis comes in.

The necessity for a transparent supply chain has never been more pressing, driven by a surge in regulations and heightened consumer expectations for sustainability and ethical practices. “Achieving such transparency presents a significant challenge for brands such as Mango, given the complexity of their global supply chains. Ensuring accurate traceability requires an advanced solution capable of providing detailed insights and verifiable data throughout every stage of production. We are happy to help Mango achieve their sustainability goals by embracing traceability and creating a transparent value chain,” explains TextileGenesis CEO, Amit Gautam.

Mango to meet its sustainable goals with a traceable and transparent supply chain

After a successful pilot conducted in 2023, Mango scaled up the collaboration with TextileGenesis. This announcement comes as key milestones have now been reached, demonstrating the impact of the platform at scale.

The digital traceability solution enables Mango to ensure a reliable, secure and fully digital mapping of their textiles, from the fiber to retail, and thereby guarantees their authenticity and origins with unparalleled accuracy. Mango has selected a comprehensive set of digital tools among its six-dimensional (6D) offering: the Fiber-to-Retail module for its sustainable certified fibers and the new product backward Supply Chain Discovery module for its conventional fibers.

This collaboration reinforces Mango’s commitment to building a transparent value chain and positions the company as a frontrunner in preparing for upcoming regulations and evolving consumer expectations worldwide.
