ZARA’s Owner Promised to Be Sustainable. It’s Tactics Say Otherwise

This documentary by Context (Thomson Reuters Foundation) investigates how Zara and its parent company Inditex balance sustainability promises with business practices. Through supply chain data and interviews with workers, factory owners, and former employees, the film reveals the heavy reliance on air shipping, which dramatically increases carbon emissions and pressures garment workers to meet tight deadlines under exploitative conditions. From Bangladesh to Spain, it exposes how speed-focused supply chains compromise both the environment and workers’ rights.
