I was finally able to visit the unspun™ team in San Francisco after we announced our partnership earlier this year. Let me just say it was incredible! unspun is truly pioneering the next generation of apparel, taking single threads and spinning them to a final product – bypassing hundreds of steps in standard apparel manufacturing practices. Having worked in fashion for so many years, it is exciting to see this type of innovation come to life and how Walmart can help move it forward for our customers and the industry. 👖👗👚 We had such a great time touring their facility. I even got a chance to sit down with Beth Esponnette, co-founder of unspun, to talk career, innovation, and how we can learn from each other through our partnership. I am so thrilled by the work Kyle Carlyle and our Sourcing Innovation team are doing to bring in companies like unspun and learning more about how we can improve efficiencies in the supply chain. #WalmartSourcing #Innovation #SourcingInnovation

would be great to see the finished garment displayed on a sustainable Grohanger.. the only hanger in the world that fits ANY size or type of clothing and never has to be discarded. Walmart customers would love this :) #babyproducts #newborn #sustainability #recycling #grohanger #plasticwaste #clotheshangers #sustainablefashion #sustainabledesign #sustainableproducts #fashion #fashionretailers #circulareconomy
