San Diego County Fair Trade Meeting
welcomed Charlotte Instone on March 31, 2016
Special Guest, Charlotte Stone, is one of the co-founders of Know The
Origin. KTO is a startup fair trade
clothing brand that reconnects customers with those working in all areas
of the supply chain, cotton farmer to the tailor. Charlotte was here in
San Diego from London. We had the chance to hear about
her experiences as she shared stores about the people, process and
purpose of our clothing
and suppliers, as well as full cost breakdown of all products. An important award she had received for her work is the Green Gown 2015 Winner! Charlotte Instone wins Student Sustainability Champion.
