Dear Stakeholders,
As Derimod, while celebrating our 50th anniversary last year, we described our longstanding spirit of “being good” as “50 Very Good Years.” Now our motivation is “The Second 50 Very Good Years.” By placing sustainability, protecting the ecosystem, circularity, human and societal well-being, women’s empowerment, and responsible production at the center of our focus, we want to carry our “being good” forward into the future, bring a new breath to fashion, and “be better” for a sustainable future. Creating value for society while producing and growing, and considering the well-being of our stakeholders—especially our employees and suppliers—as well as the well-being of our world, is the true meaning of doing business for us.
Our sustainability vision is to be a responsible company that prioritizes people, the planet, and sustainable development, while preserving Derimod’s half-century values and collective memory. On this path, we work sincerely to deliver projects that create real and lasting impact.
We believe this is the sustainability the world needs.
Because this is Derimod...
We consider sustainability management as the key motivation for creating real change and a positive impact for everyone.

We see sustainability not as a concept we try to integrate into our business, but as a real tool for change that will transform our business model.
As Derimod, starting with our employees and throughout our supply chain, we attach great importance to strengthening efforts to uphold fundamental rights and create a human-respecting workplace as part of our responsible culture. Across our management, production, and sales operations, we strive to ensure that everyone working with us can access their rights, have a healthy working environment, and benefit from the opportunities they deserve.
Not only for our own employees, but together with stakeholders at every level of our value chain, we are committed to respecting the human rights of the communities we impact.
Making a culture dominant where every person who is part of this chain feels valued, respected, and safe is one of our most important goals.

As a company operating across all regions of Türkiye and in different parts of the world, diversity management and inclusion are a natural part of our business model. At Derimod, we believe that differences nourish creativity, diversity increases success, inclusion makes culture more dynamic, and the binding element of all of these is equality. We shape our work with inclusive tools, mechanisms that encourage diversity, and an equal and fair approach.

Since we consider our suppliers as key stakeholders in our sustainability performance, we strive to make our supply chain more resilient, agile, and compliant in order to achieve our production goals. Our aim is to support our supply chain so that environmental, social, and governance risks can be managed effectively and proactively, and to build a supplier portfolio aligned with our sustainability objectives.
By reviewing our supplier selection criteria, we are continuing partnerships with suppliers who prioritize people’s well-being in working conditions and strive to improve their environmental impacts.

For us, sustainability means always being good not only for our business, but for people, the planet, and sustainable development—by making our impacts positive at every stage of fashion.
With our understanding of sustainable production and circularity, we strive to apply the highest environmental, social, and inclusive economic standards in the fashion sector—especially in the leather industry.
Throughout our 50-year story, we have always believed in the transformative power of fashion, and we do our best to turn the impact created by our products into a positive force for our planet and society.
As Derimod, our goal is to be part of the global green transformation and lead the sustainability of the fashion industry...
