Local network Germany & Austria

Connect, learn, and collaborate locally in Germany & Austria

Our local presence in Germany & Austria offers members practical guidance and regular opportunities to engage through meetings and workshops. These sessions allow members to share experiences and explore ways to strengthen sustainability across their supply chains.

The local network also facilitates engagement with local stakeholders and provides context-specific advice tailored to national challenges and priorities.

Germany, home to the largest amfori network and the birthplace of amfori BSCI, is a frontrunner in ethical trade. Its strong regulatory framework—including the Textile Partnership, Green Button, and Supply Chain Act—sets high standards for responsible sourcing and corporate accountability.

Austria and Germany play a key role in advancing sustainable trade within the EU, supporting amfori’s mission. Companies benefit from shared expertise, a strong sustainability focus, and active engagement with policymakers and stakeholders.

The amfori network in both countries empowers businesses to implement responsible practices, foster collaboration, and drive global impact.
