Square Your Circle: How to Ensure a Just Transition to Reuse Business Models in Apparel

The 'Square Your Circle' guidebook provides a framework for apparel companies to ensure that the transition to reuse business models within the circular economy is equitable and just by identifying stakeholders and mitigating risks.

• The guidebook outlines a three-step process for companies to manage the transition to reuse business models: identifying stakeholders, analyzing the effects on those stakeholders, and setting targets to mitigate risks and identify supportive partners.
• The primary objective of the guide is to assist companies in recognizing the impacts that shifting to reuse business models—a key element of the circular economy—may have on supply chain stakeholders to ensure the process is just.
