A familiar name on the streets of Central, Grana has built its reputation on the power of transparency. Based right here in Hong Kong, the brand focuses on sourcing the finest sustainable fabrics – such as Peruvian Pima cotton and Mongolian cashmere – directly from the source. By cutting out the middleman, they offer luxury-quality basics at accessible prices while maintaining a low-waste supply chain.

Hula & Redress

Sustainability isn’t only about buying new eco-friendly pieces – it’s also about giving existing clothes a second life. Hula has revolutionised the local pre-loved luxury market with a curated selection of designer items that feel more like a high-end archive than a second-hand shop. Meanwhile, the NGO Redress continues to lead the global conversation through its annual design awards, challenging emerging designers to create couture from textile waste.

Retykle

Since kids outgrow clothes almost as fast as we can buy them, a huge amount of perfectly good items end up in landfills. Retykle is a Hong Kong’s leading children’s resale platform that addresses this problem. They make it easy for parents to recirculate high-quality kids’ fashion and gear, helping to extend the lifespan of these items.

Sau Lee

Founded in 2014 by Cheryl Leung, Sau Lee celebrates a global Chinese identity by blending traditional Chinese craftsmanship with a youthful, playful spirit. Sau Lee also creates timeless pieces designed to be cherished for years, rather than discarded after a single season. It’s slow fashion with a distinct cultural style.
