SAC names new executive director

25/07/2019
The Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) has appointed Amina Razvi as its executive director. She will take over the day-to-day leadership of the organisations and will be responsible for its global operations.

She succeeds Jason Kibbey, who has transitioned to the role of CEO of Higg Co., a company that the SAC spun-off earlier this year to oversee development of the technology behind the Higg Index. This new company is majority-owned by the SAC, with funding provided by private equity firms Titan Grove and Buckhill Capital, and private investor Sanjeev Bahl of Saiburg BV. 

Ms Razvi has worked at the SAC since 2015 and has most recently vice president of membership. During her time in that role, the organisation’s membership increased from 135 to more than 250, while the Higg Index customer base now has more than 13,000 global users. She was recently elected to the board of the Apparel Impact Institute.
