Condor Group is launching a partnership with Swiss-based company Tide Ocean SA co- founded by Marc Krebs to support solutions against plastic pollution and poverty. Products labelled #tide ocean material are made with ocean-bound plastic waste collected by fishermen in Southeast Asia and Mexico. The project contributes to fair wages for fishermen, clean coastlines and reduced CO2.
