As part of a commitment towards sustainability and the environment, L’Occitane Malta have taken the initiative to plant 100 indigenous trees! Together with their local distributor Classic Group Ltd and NGO ACT, the initiative came about through a campaign whereby L’Occitane pledged to plant a tree for every purchase made.
A team of employees spent a day working with ACT in Mellieħa, planting indigenous trees grown from old stock selected to preserve their native genes, including cypress, buckthorn, carob and holm oak. Classic Group Ltd is a family run business that has emerged as Malta’s premier jewellery and watches, fashion and cosmetics company. It has been operating in the sector for over 30 years and now employs over 85 employees.
“Classic Group Ltd has always been a dedicated supporter of sustainable products and initiatives,” said CEO Karl Micallef, “We have a deep appreciation and love for nature.”
L’Occitane strives to purchase local produce whenever possible, in order to reduce their carbon footprint and support local business, giving priority to ingredients of natural origin whenever possible.
