2. Environmental impact
We consistently strive to achieve decarbonization goals verified and approved by SBTi. Our transportation, logistics, offices and warehouses are changing, as well as the way we obtain raw materials for production.
We continued our collaboration with the Polish startup Use Waste, which aims to develop a technology for recycling fibers from clothing that cannot be reused. In 2025, we expanded the project to include polyester blends (polyester with cotton, viscose, and spandex). The second phase of the work was successful—we developed a method for extracting and separating raw materials from such blends, which represent one of the biggest barriers to clothing recycling while being widely used in the textile industry. Ultimately, textile-to-textile recycling will allow us to close the textile loop and simultaneously reduce the use of raw materials in the production of our collections.
We have expanded our used clothing collection to additional countries abroad - Bulgaria, Lithuania, and North Macedonia (where it is a legal requirement). This initiative is our response to the need to close the textile loop and extend the life of clothes, shoes, and accessories that our customers no longer need. It is also a way to reduce textile waste while supporting social initiatives.
We have developed a climate transformation plan, a comprehensive strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain—both within our own operations and in collaboration with suppliers and business partners.
The plan is aligned with our SBTi-approved reduction targets and with the Paris Agreement’s goals to limit the rise in global average temperature to 1.5°C.

3. Social impact
LPP’s business activities affect our employees and associates, the local community, all individuals and entities in the supply chain and customers. Dialogue with stakeholders is at the heart of our relationships and significantly influences LPP’s sustainability decision-making processes.
We have implemented numerous regulations and procedures in our companies to ensure a single standard for hiring and building relationships with employees.
Supply chain
We continue to participate in international associations and initiatives, including the International Accord for Health and Safety in the Textile and Garment Industry, Cotton made in Africa, Cascale, and Amfori BSCI.
All factories and suppliers who wish to cooperate with LPP are required to accept and implement the LPP Code of Conduct. The document precisely defines our requirements regarding working conditions.
Compliance with the Code is regularly verified by our team of auditors and in cooperation with international organizations (including International Accord and amfori BSCI).
LPP aims to ensure that all of its partner factories are covered by systems for assessing working conditions and safety, such as amfori BSCI, or other comparable audit systems conducted by external, independent entities. Under these systems, 90% of factories in Pakistan and 100% of factories in Bangladesh have been assessed. Monitoring under amfori BSCI or other audit systems also covers suppliers operating in India, Turkey, Cambodia, Myanmar, and China.
We continued to participate in initiatives, which focus on systemic actions for decarbonization, environmental efficiency improvement and energy transition.
The organization creates and promotes industry standards and policies that support emission reduction in the apparel industry and related sectors. Collaborating with Cascale helps us accelerate decarbonization efforts in the supply chain, drive innovation and positive change across the industry.

Workplace
All of the LPP Group’s activities are grounded in shared values, attitudes, and beliefs that shape its corporate culture. This culture plays a vital role—it shapes how decisions are made, how we collaborate, and how we build relationships with stakeholders.
In 2025, the LPP Group created jobs for over 63,000 people in Poland and abroad. Our offices, stores and warehouse facilities are created by talented specialists, outstanding experts and people who are just starting to gain professional experience.
LPP Foundation
The LPP Foundation manages the social involvement of the LPP Group. We cooperate with organizations whose mission is to support, among others, residents of children's homes and people with disabilities.
As part of the original program "Fashion for a better start", over 300 residents of children's homes in Pomerania and Małopolska, use financial resources on a daily basis for additional medical care, education and the development of passions.
One of the key areas of the LPP Foundation's activities is supporting the mental health of children and young people. For several years, we have been cooperating with organizations that conduct various activities for mental well-being. We finance the activities of a club for young people, where they can spend their free time in safe conditions and receive psychological support.
We fund the running of three "Niebieskie trampki" clubs run by the FOSA Foundation, where young people can spend their free time in a safe environment and receive psychological support. We also engage in activities aimed at promoting knowledge about mental health prevention by supporting educational projects and conferences devoted to this topic.
LPP Group employees regularly engage in the LPP Foundation's activities, and through volunteering they have the opportunity to implement aid initiatives for local communities, medical facilities, and homeless animals. Our employees also participate in activities that directly use their talents and competences.
They are involved in activities related to clothing design, styling, arrangement work, and organizing creative workshops. Since 2018, more than 4,300 volunteers have participated in volunteer projects, contributing over 76,000 hours of volunteer service.
4. Corporate governance
LPP’s corporate governance model underpins successful governance, effective oversight, transparent company-market communication and respect for shareholder rights. The implemented policies form an integral part of our operating system, enhancing its transparency and balancing the interests of all capital market participants.
At LPP, we implement a human and labour rights due diligence process in business relationships and across the value chain. The purpose of the process is to continuously identify the impact we exert, counteract and minimize the risks associated with it by implementing appropriate remedial and corrective actions.
At LPP, we manage ESG issues in a centralised manner, working out environmental, social and corporate governance solutions that are consistent across all touchpoints in the organisation. In 2022, we initiated our efforts that will allow us to fully comply with the new EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
The Director of Procurement and ESG reports directly to the CEO of LPP. Supporting the Board and the Director of Procurement and ESG in defining ESG objectives and policies is the ESG Committee, which includes, for example, the directors of our company’s key business units.
Corporate governance
We strive to ensure transparency in our operations and clear communication with all our stakeholders. The activities of LPP SA, which is the parent company of the LPP Group, are regulated by a number of documents. For example, we comply with the new principles of corporate governance, entitled The ‘Code of Best Practice for WSE Listed Companies 2021’ (DPSN, Principles of Corporate Governance), which the WSE announced in 2021. The activities of LPP SA, which is our parent company in the LPP Group, are regulated in particular by:

Our publications 2017 - 2024
The LPP Integrated Reports, which present non-financial and financial results for LPP SA and the LPP Group, have been produced since 2017 and initially cover the calendar year. In 2019, data, as an exception, came from 13 months (from 1 January 2019 to 31 January 2020). The 2020 report covers the period from 1 February 2020 to 31 January 2021.
The switch in reporting from the calendar year to the financial year, which ends on the last day of January, increases the usefulness of the reports as this treatment better captures the seasonality of the business. Accordingly, the latest report for 2022/23 also covers the financial year, i.e. the period from 1 February 2023 to 31 January 2024.
