Redefining Success: Why the Future Is Circular

ACT joined Kiki Boreel on 'The Green Times’ Redefining Success' podcast to discuss its journey, circular textile model and vision for a future where business success benefits both people and the planet.

What if business success were measured not only by profit, but also by its impact on people and the planet?

Africa Collect Textiles joined model and sustainability advocate Kiki Boreel on Redefining Success, a podcast by The Green Times featuring entrepreneurs who are building a more sustainable economy.

During the conversation, ACT’s founders shared the experiences that shaped their journey and the mission behind the organization. They discussed ACT’s operational model, its approach to collecting and recovering unwanted textiles, and the importance of building the systems needed to keep valuable materials in circulation.

The episode also explored ACT’s vision for growth, the responsibility of businesses and consumers within the global textile industry, and what it will take to scale circular solutions for the future.

At its heart, the conversation asked a bigger question: what does success look like when people and the environment are placed at the center?
