Minerva Sustainability was established in 2017 to consolidate the technical expertise of a team that had been delivering social and environmental audits across the textile value chain since 2016. What began as a small group of verifiers in Istanbul has grown into an internationally accredited firm serving brands and suppliers across Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia.
We exist because the gap between intent and impact in sustainability is too often closed by paperwork rather than performance. Our verifications, validations and trainings are designed to produce measurable outcomes — cleaner factories, better protected workers, smaller environmental footprints, and credible data that brands can stand behind.
Today, Minerva operates globally from regional hubs in Istanbul, Buenos Aires and Ho Chi Minh City — supporting brands and suppliers in more than 15 countries. Our auditors are CSCA and ASCA certified, and our methodologies are aligned with APSCA, Higg FEM, ZDHC, EIM and emerging EU regulatory frameworks.
