THIS IS H&M
FASHION and QUALITY at the BEST PRICE

H&Ms business concept is to offer fashion and quality at the best price. H&M has since it was founded in 1947 grown into one of the worlds leading fashion companies.
We are guided by strong values. These are founded on fundamental respect for the individual, and a belief in each persons ability to show initiative. Together over 104,000 employees form a design-driven, creative and responsible global fashion company with a passion for fashion and an ambition to always exceed customer expectations. Our design team, pattern makers and buyers work together to create a broad and varied range of inspiring fashion. Fashion collections for women, men, teenagers and children are complemented by shoes, accessories, cosmetics and even home textiles. The diversity of the collections means H&M has fashion for all. Efficient decision-making and flexible assortment planning ensure that the product range is always adapted to the latest trends. Best price is achieved through in-house design, no middlemen, large purchasing volumes of right product from the right market, efficient logistics and cost consciousness at every step. H&M should always have the best customer offering in each and every market. This also means that H&M should be the more sustainable alternative for increasingly aware fashion customers worldwide.

As part of our strong customer offer, we should be the more sustainable alternative for increasingly aware fashion customers worldwide. That is why sustainability is an integrated part of our operations and why considerable resources are devoted to ensure sustainable development for H&M in the long term. H&M does not own factories, but instead buys products from around 800 independent suppliers. In the supply chain, the garment lifecycle and the communities in which H&M is active, our aim is to contribute to long-term improvements for people and the environment. The vision is that all H&Ms activities are conducted in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable manner. We have entered a global partnership with WWF the first of its kind that sets a new standard in the fashion industry. Through the partnership H&M commits to contribute to the responsible use of water resources throughout the entire lifecycle of a garment. We are the first fashion company to introduce a global clothing collecting initiative. Customers can hand in their used clothing, whatever the brand, in selected H&M stores in all markets. The textiles are handled and re-used or recycled so that they can be reused. In collaboration with a number of suppliers, we have saved 450 million litres of water through smarter denim production since 2009. We have donated 12.5 million US dollars to All for Children projects in India and Bangladesh which are run in collaboration with UNICEF.
MORE SUSTAINABLE FASHION

We are the worlds largest user of organic cotton. The target is for all of the cotton H&M uses to come from more sustainable sources by 2020. Cotton from more sustainable sources means organic cotton, recycled cotton or cotton grown under the Better Cotton Initiative.
Global eXpansion
H&M is expanding with a focus on quality, sustainability and high profitability. We offer customers inspiring shopping experiences in stores, as well as through our growing shop online. Through a compelling offering to customers everywhere in the world, good opportunities are created for many years of successful expansion in all existing markets and new countries with all our brands and new concepts. The broad range and variety of collections is a strength that enables H&M to grow deeply in each market. Our expansion is long-term and is entirely self-funded. Our growth target is to increase the number of stores by 10-15 percent per year while also increasing sales in comparable units. Thailand (via franchise) and Mexico. For 2013 we plan to open 350 new stores net and to add five further new markets: Chile the first H&M store in South America and the southern hemisphere which opened in March, and Estonia, Lithuania, Serbia and (via franchise) Indonesia in autumn. During 2014 the very first H&M store will open in Australia.
