On Monday, 13th January 2020 we had the honour of hosting Walpole’s launch of its Sustainability Manifesto at their annual CEO & Chairman’s Dinner, where over 100 British luxury brands came together to support the new initiative and commit to prioritising sustainability within their businesses in the historic UN Ballroom at Four Seasons London at Ten Trinity Square.
Alex Field, Group Sales and Marketing Director for Reignwood welcomed the guests and shared more about the ballroom’s significant history as the place of the inaugural UN Reception in 1946.
Managing Director for Harrods and Walpole’s Chairman, Michael Ward took to the stage to share his views on the importance of sustainability in the luxury market. This was then followed by Walpole’s CEO Helen Brocklebank who introduced Walpole’s Luxury sustainability manifesto and outlined the many ways British luxury brands can become more sustainable in 2020.
