We are constantly developing new products, whether high-fashion pieces or timeless classics. We work closely with our customers to be able to offer a wide range of matching accessories of the highest quality. Currently, the company employs about 50 people across Germany. The company is headquartered in Munich. Its business areas include wholesale business, space management and shop-in-shop concepts.
A FAMILY BUSINESS WITH TRADITION
BUSINESS AREAS
As an importer and wholesaler, YOU & ME Fashion supplies well-known fashion companies, department stores, chain stores and textile chains with its collection. We have been a reliable partner for large and small companies for decades.
Our shop-in-shops continually generate high m² turnover far above the normal market rate in fashion and specialist shops, in department stores and in chemist’s shops. Along with the management of goods and copies, visual merchandising is also carried out by our trained employees.
Our entire presentation is exclusively shaped in line with our corporate identity; customer expectations and our expertise work in tandem with one another. The collection is tailored to your product range in terms of season and content, and developed individually for you.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We promise and commit ourselves to act responsibly towards society, the environment and our employees. We incorporate social and environmental factors into our strategy and decisions. In the present era, sustainability is an essential precondition for the long-term security and continuing success of a company’s policies. We continue to support social projects: for example, we have kitted out those in need with warm clothing for the winter.
FAIR WORKING CONDITIONS
In addition, we are committed to ensuring better working conditions at our suppliers’ premises, all around the world. To achieve this goal, our products are only made in BSCI-certified factories. This independent certification confirms that the 11 most important labour rights — for example, the right to fair pay, a safe workplace or the prohibition of child labour — are adhered to. Our Code of Conduct represents binding rules to assist in overcoming the ethical and legal challenges of our daily work. With these rules, all our employees around the world are obliged to adhere to maintaining ethical business practices, fair conduct and compliance with all laws — without exception.
PRODUCT SAFETY
A large proportion of our products also correspond to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100. This standard ensures a high level of product safety that goes well beyond national and international standards. Our numerous functional products, such as work gloves and motorcycle gloves, have been tested and certified by recognised institutes.
HIGH PRODUCT STANDARDS
A large proportion of our leather products have an LWG (Leather Working Group) certificate, as a way for us to sustainably improve our production standards for leather products. This certificate confirms that no potentially toxic substances were used to tan the leather, and that, amongst other things, water and energy consumption during production had been reduced.
