Mission & Interests

Goals: The European Branded Clothing Alliance (EBCA) is a coalition of European retail clothing brands. Between us we represent around 60 brands and employ over 160,000 people in our European operations. The Alliance provides the first collective and exclusive voice for retail clothing brands in Europe. Drawing upon a balanced and representative membership present in a range of EU member states, the Alliance seeks to serve as a sounding-board for EU policy-makers as they develop trade policy that seeks to balance the interests of all Europeans in an increasingly global environment. EBCA showcases the contribution of clothing retailers to European competitiveness and employment, and seeks to ensure a more predictable business environment, a positive trade agenda, and a better deal for European consumers.

Activities

Main EU Legislative Proposals: As a coalition of European retail clothing brands with both a European and global presence, EBCA’s main activities focus on ensuring an open trade agenda and fair market access at both bilateral and multilateral levels. As a consequence, the subject matter of EBCA’s outreach efforts consists of the following: • Free, fair and sustainable trade; • Ambitious yet feasible due diligence and sustainable corporate governance frameworks; • Robust trade agreements with third countries; • Simplified Rules of Origin during the negotiation of free trade agreements; • A well-functioning multilateral trading system; • Market access for European companies in third countries; • Trade facilitation through the harmonization of customs procedures in each member state, including the UK post-Brexit; • Effective protection of intellectual property rules; • An efficient, equitable and user-friendly customs-valuation system.
