Gucci Launches Circular Hub in Italy
Gucci and Kering are launching an innovation platform that will aim to accelerate the circular transformation of the Italian fashion industry's production model. Covering everything from raw materials and design to production optimisation and logistics, the Circular Hub will support the creation of products that maximise the use of recycled materials, durability and recyclability. The initiative aligns with Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan, a strategy linked to the EU’s 2030 emissions reduction targets.
Ed Sheeran X Heinz
Heinz have announced their newest collaboration with Ed Sheeran as they co-create the ketchup of hot sauces, taking its name from Ed Sheeran’s childhood nickname, Tingly Ted’s. Having previously promoted the product in an advert back in 2019, this was a natural progression for the musician, who has a famous Heinz ketchup tattoo. Tingly Ted’s is the latest insight-led innovation from Kraft Heinz as it continues to grow its Taste Elevation platform around the world, expanding into new categories and channels to fuel its transformation.
