Organic Cotton Producer Directory

This document provides a sample of the information that will be featured in Textile Exchange’s soon-to-launch Organic Cotton Producer Directory; a public online tool that will help the industry connect directly with producers of organic cotton around the world.

The directory will allow users to search for organic cotton producers based on specific criteria such as region, country, annual fiber production, or fiber length. Contact information is provided so that users can get in touch with producers directly for up to date information, such as availability and pricing.

The directory is a voluntary listing, and the information featured is self-submitted. Hence, it is not an exhaustive list of all organic cotton producers globally. The aim of the tool is to provide visibility to organic cotton farmers, their products, and their stories. If you have questions or if you represent an organic cotton producer/producer group and would like to be featured, please contact [email protected].
