Wood Belt became the first Slovenian People and Planet Verified Social Enterprise

Congratulations to @woodbelteu (Slovenia) on becoming a People and Planet First Verified Social Enterprise.

Wood Belt produces belts and bags from sustainably sourced materials, creates livelihood opportunities for artisans and people with disabilities in Slovenia, and contributes to the impact of the fashion movement. Their belt buckles are made from locally sourced wood offcuts, and their belts are made from cork, vegetable-tanned leather, recycled leather, cotton, hemp, and NUO wood textiles. They offer customisable modular designs and a Together Forever repair service. Wood Belt donates one euro from every sale to environmental conservation and restoration in national parks. Profits are used to provide training and employment to underserved groups in Slovenia.
