B Corp Month is an opportunity to reflect on the progress we’re making across KMD Brands Limited As a Certified B Corporation, responsible business practices are embedded in how we operate - and we know the work is ongoing. Over the past year, our brands - Kathmandu, Rip Curl and Oboz Footwear -have taken meaningful steps forward across community, climate and circularity. Kathmandu achieved 100% Responsible Wool Standard certified wool, launched REDU in New Zealand, and published its first Climate-Related Disclosure Statement. Rip Curl celebrated 25 years of Planet Day, and transitioned two of its bestselling wetsuit models - the E-Bomb and Dawn Patrol - to be made exclusively with OCENA® rubber. The brand also surpassed 64,000 wetsuits recycled globally. Oboz Footwear expanded environmentally preferred materials across its range, launched a footwear take-back program, reached 7 million trees planted through One More Tree, and continued investing in trail stewardship and conservation partnerships. Across the Group, we continued our work to support fair workplaces - including consulting factory workers and participating in living wage initiatives - while progressing climate action and integrating lower-impact design into our products. This video shares a snapshot of that progress across KMD Brands. As we mark B Corp Month, we remain focused on our vision - to be the leading family of global outdoor brands, designed for purpose and driven by innovation. Brent Scrimshaw Carla W.
