Challenges
The challenges at hand for Nudie Jeans were unoptimized ways of working with sustainability. They saw a need for software that could streamline the process, saving them time and allowing insight-driven work.
Previously, all sustainability data was gathered and managed manually through email communication with suppliers in Excel files. The system wasn't suitable for long-term sustainability management for a company striving for excellence within sustainability. Nudie Jeans recognized a need for a tool that could simplify the process and make it more efficient, saving time and making all data unitary and available in one place.
