Founded in 2004, the award-winning global not-for-profit organisation, which acts to improve environmental and social conditions within the fashion industry, was placed into liquidation on 10 October 2018 with the appointment of Brian Baker, partner at Kingston Smith & Partners.

Made-By has worked with many of the top fashion brands including Hugo Boss, Ted Baker, Tommy Hilfiger and G-Star, to name a few. 

“Made-By is a truly impactful organisation that has been at the forefront of driving sustainability transformation for over a decade,” says Baker. “With this much potential, we are determined to find a suitable buyer for the business so that the fantastic work of Made-By and its dedicated team of staff can continue.”

The organisation, which launched its first Environmental Benchmark for fibres in 2009, is understood to have relied on consultancy work to generate income. Reports suggest one of its largest donors recently pulled out.

Interested parties are being urged to contact Nat Baldwin at Hilco Streambank.
