We imagined this concept, which has since been widely copied in neighbouring countries, but never equalled!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kalani, before being a brand, is an entrepreneurial adventure, but above all a human one, thanks to our partners who believed in us and embarked on our dreams of a better world, and this, from the very first day, and also thanks to all the encounters that followed, thanks to you, our dear customers, who dare to say it, are our best ambassadors, to our friends, our new partners, our trainees and our employees&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We have seen a lot of crises: Covid, the repeated lockdowns, the raw materials crisis, the transport crisis, the climate crises, the energy crisis and the purchasing power crisis.<br \/>\nIt has not always been easy to keep the Cape, but we are proud and happy to see how far we have come. We may not be growing at the same speed as others in the same sector, but we are growing, with a model based on respect and resilience. We still have many dreams and projects to share with you, but with our feet firmly on the ground and our head on our shoulders, we remain and will remain aligned with our values. We claim it!<\/p>\n<p>All this would of course never have been possible without you, our dear customers, who have improved your nights and\/or days thanks to the quality and comfort of Kalani products. We are extremely grateful for your trust, your support, your encouragement, your likes and messages on social networks, your opinions and feedback on our products on the website, on Google and on Facebook, but also for talking about it so well around you. In this age of new technologies, we always smile when we realise that you have heard about it from a friend of a friend, your favourite cousin&#8217;s teenagers, your husband who heard one of his colleagues talking about it during lunch&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sustainability in Kalani&#8217;s DNA.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As mentioned above, sustainability is part of the DNA of our lovely brand. And we don&#8217;t hide behind certifications, we do much more than what we say. We are committed to so much more than most textile brands do, right from the cotton fields, as we buy the beautiful Cotton Bio\/Fairtrade directly from the cotton cooperative we have been partnering with for 6 years.<\/p>\n<p>Certifications alone are not enough, as it is important for a brand to go further, to check what it is doing itself and to question itself.<\/p>\n<p>However, these certifications are important, because they officially attest to our commitments and guarantee you control by third parties. This is why :<br \/>\n&#8211; all our products are GOTS certified organic cotton by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecocert.com\/en\/home\">Ecocert GreenLife<\/a> since 2016.<br \/>\n&#8211; we are certified Fairtrade Cotton by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flocert.net\/\">FLO-Cert<\/a> since 2016<br \/>\n&#8211;
