LACOSTE & THE BIODIVERSITY

When René Lacoste adopted the crocodile emblem, he had no idea that 80 years later this logo would be worn by millions of people. Equally, he never imagined that the crocodile could one day disappear. As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) mandate, Lacoste contributes to the protection of biodiversity worldwide through its involvement in the preservation of crocodiles, alligators, caimans and gharials, as well as the protection and restoration of the ecosystems in which these animals live.

The LACOSTE CSR policy aims first at protecting the collaborators, the working tool and the brand: the Partners & Suppliers Charter LACOSTE clarifies our rules of the game and makes sensitive the collaborators in the CSR stakes.
