Jolly Soles Sustainability Actions

Supports disability employment

Jolly Soles says it has worked with Orana Australia since 2019 to help people with special needs do packing work in the local area. The brand says this started when it needed help packing orders and then explored disability employment options. This is a social impact action, because it creates paid work for people who may face barriers to getting jobs. Orana is also mentioned as a business service that packs orders on weekdays.

Runs fundraising for groups

The brand has helped more than 10,000 groups turn sock sales into money for causes since 2019. It offers different fundraising formats, including box sales, order forms, and online fundraisers. The idea is to give schools, clubs, and charities a simple product they can sell to raise funds. This is mainly a social action, since it supports community groups and local causes rather than focusing on environmental change.

Uses third-party sourcing standards

Jolly Soles says its socks are ethically sourced and that its long-term supplier is certified to BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative, a standard that checks labour and workplace conditions). It also says the cotton is STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified, which means the textile has been tested for harmful substances. The socks are made in China and designed and packaged in Australia. These claims point to basic supply-chain controls and product safety checks.

Uses local packing services

The company says its orders are packed by Orana Business Services from Monday to Wednesday. It also says this keeps packing in the local area. This is not a full environmental action, but it does show a local operations choice and a link to supported employment. The brand also says it uses Australia Post for smaller orders and TNT for larger ones, which gives some detail on how products are shipped.
