Selecting responsible suppliers is another important element of sustainable agriculture. We regularly conduct supply chain audits of the natural resources we use in our products. LVMH Fragrance Brands has audited its rose, jasmine, orange blossom and bergamot suppliers. What's more, we place great importance on respecting local environments and cultures. This is reflected in the Cha Ling cosmetics brand, which protects the Pu'er tea plant which is grown in forests that are thousands of years old in Yunnan, China.
Loro Piana has helped save vicuña from extinction by founding a reserve where traditional breeding methods are used, achieving a balance between the animals, their habitat and local populations.
The LVMH Group has been committed to preserving agricultural land and the natural environment for many years. We have been working tirelessly alongside public and private partners, like the French Foundation for Research on Biodiversity, of which we are a founding member.
