Consciously made by Nearby Group
For people, and for the environment
We are happy to work with some of the most forward-thinking brands in creating the future models for sustainable designs, production, and materials. Changing old well-established business models is not easy and takes leadership and open collaboration.
“In Nearby Group we engage 100% into this transformation – obviously because it is important to protect both our people and the planet.”
But also, because we believe that delivering sustainable solutions is the future for staying in business
