The world’s first dedicated sustainable sports brand retailer has officially launched today, marking a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to promoting eco-conscious products to its customers. Run Legacy (www.run-legacy.com) is dedicated to offering premium sustainable products to the running community, with a clear mission to promote sustainable business practices.
Founder Ben Lee stated, “We recognize today’s running community wants to balance performance with reduced impact on the natural world. Our platform serves both the running community and wider society by offering products that don’t compromise on either quality, performance or environmental responsibility.”
Run Legacy works closely with brand partners to ensure complete transparency regarding product and brand sustainability credentials. This innovative platform addresses the growing demand for clear information and options when purchasing performance gear.
The company is investing substantially to create sustainable value and transform how runners and sports enthusiasts consume products while giving back to the environment and society. For every order placed, Run Legacy plants a tree through their partner Ecologi and donates 1% of annual revenue to environmental causes through the 1% for the Planet initiative.
One of Run Legacy’s unique market propositions is its rigorous verification process for all green claims made by featured brands, powered by Compare Ethics. This ensures customers can trust the sustainability credentials of every product purchased.
Rolling People Showroom, U.K. distributors for VEJA, shared their support for Run Legacy, stating, “Our society’s dependence on plastic and oil is an ecological disaster. From drilling petroleum to plastic waste flowing into the sea. VEJA strives to partner with retailers who share the same values, and we find this with Run Legacy.”
Similarly, Jack Lemon, UK/EU Lead for Janji, expressed their enthusiasm for partnering with Run Legacy, stating, “Sustainability is at the core of every decision that we make at Janji. We’re delighted to partner with Run Legacy, a retailer sharing the same values and positioned at the forefront of sustainability within the running industry.”
Both VEJA and Janji are available now on Run Legacy’s official website. For more information or media enquiries, please contact:
