March 2025 - In Egypt, Alex Apparels hosted a transformative retreat focused on mindfulness, confidence-building, and team connection. In Jordan, United Creations rolled out a multi-day programme promoting health and economic empowerment, featuring free health screenings, wellness support, and a vibrant bazaar showcasing women’s creativity and entrepreneurship.

In China, Paradise Textiles launched Her Power Week, celebrating women’s voices through storytelling, peer recognition, and creative expression. Meanwhile in Vietnam, Alpine Creations teams showed appreciation through gifts and flowers - a sentiment also celebrated on Vietnamese Women’s Day in October.

A standout moment came from Egypt, where Alex Apparels produced a short film following the story of a young woman building her career in the garment industry. Featuring real employees, the video captures the ambition and resilience of the women transforming our factories and communities.

But beyond celebration, the day also served as a call to action. Across the group, Alpine is driving long-term progress through key initiatives:

• Empowering Through Education – Offering training in family planning, financial literacy, mental health, and anti-violence, while challenging gender bias and toxic masculinity to build safer, more inclusive workplaces.
  

• Breaking Barriers with Dignity Kits – Providing reusable menstrual products, education, and employment to women in underserved communities through our award-winning initiative.

• Partnering for Progress – Collaborating with brands and NGOs like RISE, Kendaka, and Freedom4Girls to advance gender equality across the industry.

“At Alpine, women’s empowerment is woven into every part of how we operate, said Clare Woodford, VP of Sustainability and Impact.

“International Women’s Day is more than a moment of recognition - it reflects our commitment to building a workplace where every woman, in every role and location, can thrive.”
