CARBON FOOTPRINT REPORT

Sustainability is at the core of Mifuko’s operations. It guides everything from material choices and logistics to long-term collaboration models with rural women’sgroups. Mifuko is a certified Fair Trade company, and its goal is to create sustainable employment and well-being within local communities.The global nature of the business has a significant impact on the carbon footprint. In the 2024 emissions profile, the largest emissions originated from logistics—especially transportation from Kenya to Finland—and from the materials used. The emissions report helps Mifuko identify its impacts and develop concrete measures to reduce its environmental footprint. Mifuko believes that climate-resilient business must go hand in hand with social justice.
