Capri’s 2021 CSR report builds upon its global, group-wide sustainability strategy, originally released in April 2020, which is divided into three areas:

  • Our World — We know that the success of our company is directly linked to the sustainability of the word around us. Our brands strive to create the highest quality luxury products with longevity and sustainability in mind. Operating responsibly helps us to lower our impact on the planet and to promote industry-wide environmental change.
  • Our Community — We believe we have a responsibility to those who work with us. Our company strives to create inclusive workplaces where all of our employees are empowered and respected. We are committed to creating meaningful opportunities for our diverse Capri community to grow.
  • Our Philanthropy — Giving back is embedded in Capri’s culture. We remain steadfast in our commitment of support and driving positive change in the communities where we live and work.

As part of its 2020 CSR strategy, Capri previously committed to ambitious, measurable goals around greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy, raw material sourcing, water use, waste reduction, diversity and inclusion, and philanthropic giving. Today’s report covers the company’s activities to drive meaningful progress toward those goals during Fiscal Year 2021 along with some of the major CSR-related activities undertaken during the first half of Fiscal Year 2022.

“Our corporate social responsibility strategy has always been about focusing our energy and resources where we can make the greatest impact on people and the planet,” said John D. Idol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Capri Holdings. “Over the past year, we continued to improve the way we work in order to better the world in which we live. I am incredibly proud of our entire organization for demonstrating how business can truly be a force for good.”

Highlights in the 2021 report include:

Our World

  • Signing the Science Based Targets initiative Business Ambition for 1.5°C, committing the company to set science-based targets across its operations and supply chain in alignment with reduction requirements to keep warming below 1.5°C globally.
  • Reaffirming our commitment to reach 100% renewable energy worldwide by joining RE100.
  • Making significant progress toward our goal to source at least 95% of our leather from Leather Working Group Gold- or Silver-certified tanneries, or from tanneries achieving comparable certification, by 2025. In Fiscal Year 2021, 85% of leather was sourced from suppliers meeting these highest standards of environmental performance.
  • Investing in Desserto® – an advanced, cactus-based material that is a sustainable, low-impact option for accessories and footwear.

Our Community

  • Pledging $20 million to the Capri Holdings Foundation for the Advancement of Diversity in Fashion, to further the foundation’s mission of supporting diversity, inclusion and equality throughout the fashion industry.
  • Launching Pride@Capri, our first employee resource group focused on the LGBTQ+ community and its allies.
  • Signing the Black and Fashion Council’s pledge to raise the percentage of Black employees in executive- and junior-level positions throughout our company.
  • Achieving a score of 80 points out of 100 on our first submission to the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index.

Our Philanthropy

  • Contributing $3 million with our brands and our founders to local and international organizations providing frontline and emergency relief at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Donating $35 million of Michael Kors product to poverty and disaster-relief through non-profit Delivering Good.
  • Delivering more than 24 million school meals through the Michael Kors Watch Hunger Stop campaign in partnership with the United Nations World Food Programme.
  • Continuing to support Women for Women International through The Jimmy Choo Foundation.
  • Supporting the Born this Way Foundation, a non-profit organization committed to empowering and aiding the wellness of young people, through Versace’s Pride 2021 programming.

The company conducted a Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) analysis to enhance its sustainability strategy and programming. As a part of Capri’s commitment to transparency, the report is supported by disclosures aligned with TCFD recommendations, and for the second year, with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) framework. The report also includes information on how the company’s CSR activities and strategic focus areas align to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact.
