Textile manufacturer and knitwear exporter Kay & Emms Global has partnered with the Organic Cotton Accelerator (OCA) to promote sustainable cotton farming practices in Pakistan.

Through this collaboration, Kay & Emms Global will act as one of OCA’s local partners, helping cotton farmers adopt organic farming methods. The initiative will focus on supporting transparent and traceable systems while keeping farmers’ needs at the center. Farmers will benefit from training, guidance for organic certification, and connections to high-value markets, ensuring their cotton is fully traceable from farm to finish.

Barry Tariq, Director of Sales and Marketing at Kay & Emms Global, said, “Partnering with OCA helps us align our sustainability efforts with international benchmarks and bring meaningful change at the farm level. This collaboration supports our goals of encouraging regenerative agriculture, enhancing supply chain transparency, and meeting the rising demand for ethically sourced materials.”

This partnership also supports OCA’s efforts to grow its presence in new regions. Earlier this month, OCA released its annual report highlighting global progress in organic cotton. The report revealed that the Farm Program now includes over 100,000 farmers across Pakistan, India, and Turkey.
