To be published in January 2012, this unique 100 page booklet will be written by sustainable cotton expert Simon Ferrigno and edited by John Mowbray of Ecotextile News. It will offer readers' new insight into how cotton growers, manufacturer’s, retailer’s and brands can navigate their way through the challenges and pit-falls of current and future global cotton sector strategies.
