Cotton grown in Africa (CmiA) has achieved record levels of supply and demand with global textile production doubling, to 600 million items, and cotton production in Africa rising by 10% in 2021. New and existing clients are seeking to purchase greater amounts of cotton verified through CmiA and CmiA organic. Cotton made in Africa is active in eleven countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and supports around one million small-scale farmers. Together, we have been able to ensure that CmiA and CmiA Organic cotton enjoy worldwide demand and are processed in over 50 textile production markets. The three foremost purchasers of CmiA cotton are Lidl Group, Otto Group, and Ernsting’s family.
