Voyager Distributing Co Sustainability Actions

Joined circular fashion scheme

The company is listed as a member of Seamless, Australia’s clothing stewardship scheme. This scheme is meant to cut textile waste and support reuse, repair, and recycling. Members help fund the program through a small levy per garment and are expected to use circular design ideas, which means making clothes with their next life in mind. The goal is to keep clothing in use for longer and reduce the amount sent to landfill.

Signed worker safety accord

The company is a signatory to the International Accord for Health and Safety in the Textile & Garment Industry. This is a binding industry agreement that asks brands to disclose factories, support safety inspections, help fix hazards, and pay part of the program costs. It was created after the Rana Plaza disaster in Bangladesh, which killed more than 1,000 workers. The company has also signed the Pakistan Accord.

Reported modern slavery risks

A Human Rights Law Centre review of modern slavery statements found that the company’s disclosure was rated in the 61–80% range. Modern slavery statements are public reports that explain how a company looks for and responds to forced labour risks in its operations and supply chain. The score suggests the company gave more detail than many peers, although it was not the top performer in the review.

Worked on renewable electricity

Greenpeace’s Reenergise campaign says the company has already invested in on-site solar and has committed to using 100% renewable electricity for its operations by 2030. The same source notes that it had not signed a power purchase agreement, or PPA, which is a contract to buy electricity directly from a wind or solar project. This shows some progress, but also that the transition was still incomplete at the time of the source.

Improved packaging reporting

The company is a member of the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation, or APCO, which works on better packaging and a circular economy for packaging. In its 2026 APCO annual report, it received a packaging performance level of 2, called Good Progress. APCO members must report each year on their packaging actions, so this suggests the company has started to make changes, but still has room to improve.

Used certified cotton and wool

Across the material, several brands linked to the company are shown using or planning to use certified materials. Examples include commitments to RDS-certified down, which means down and feathers come from ducks and geese that were not live-plucked or force-fed, and membership of the Better Cotton Initiative and Textile Exchange. These steps point to some effort to reduce harm in raw material sourcing, although the sources also show that progress is uneven across brands.
