CONTACT US UPDATES MISSION STATEMENT Delivering Fashion is Our Passion Creating Trend and Quality for Our Clients with Great Care and Heart. We Believe in Making a Difference Every Day in Our Company and Yours. CORE VALUES HISTORY Founded January 25, 1971, Topson Downs has over 40 years in the fashion apparel industry. We started in the downtown Los Angeles fashion scene, with all operations in one small building. Gradually, Topson expanded into manufacturing worldwide. In the late seventies, Topson Downs expanded into Mexico. As a pioneer in outsourced shipping, Topson started a trend that has become mainstream in the garment industry. The past decade has been a major expansion era for Topson Downs. In 1998, we expanded into China and eventually opened a China design room. Starting with junior apparel, we've gradually expanded our product line to include all categories of women's apparel. Since we started, the apparel industry has evolved drastically. Topson Downs was ahead of the curve and began focusing on accommodating the mass-market retailers and speciality stores. Through building these relationships, Topson Downs has become a reliable supplier for quick response manufacturing. In the past five years, The Topson Downs Group has shipped over 100 million units.

THE BIG TEAM TOPSON We have over 300 team members with diverse backgrounds working together with our Core Values in mind and in our heart while we create, execute, and deliver fashion to our clients while having fun. GLOBAL COMPLIANCE Topson Downs seeks to conduct business in an ethical and moral manner in all countries in which we have the privilege to work. With our customer base expanding across many diverse cultures, we must ensure that the business people and companies with which we associate have the same values that we expect from our own employees. To achieve this, Topson Downs follows a company-wide code of conduct, including: Ethical Standards, Legal Requirements, Health & Safety, Environmental Safekeeping, Wages and Benefits, Working Hours, Child Labor, Prison/Forced Labor, Discrimination, Freedom of Association, and finally Disciplinary Practices. Setting the standard is great, but how do we ensure these principles are adhered to? We developed a compliance matrix which is audited every sixty days, which not only reassures us that these principles are met, but allows us to see progress and growth as well. DOWNLOAD OUR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FILE » SUSTAINABILITY Topson Downs strives to conduct business in a manner that considers our impact on the planet. A healthy environment is crucial for our customers, business, employees, community, and planet. In 2009, our building renovation received a LEED Gold Certification, and is powered mostly by renewable energy via an offset from Renewable Choice Energy. In 2015, we committed to a comprehensive sustainability plan that tackles a large scale of challenges. We are engaging with the Carbon Disclosure Project, and working towards achieving an Energy Star certification. We’ve opened dialogue with our factories about more sustainable production methods, especially in denim. The factories we work with across the globe are reporting their energy and water use, which we use to offer them reduction goals and create benchmarks of low-energy production. We're looking after our most important resource, our planet. After all, a polluted, energy-deficient world won't be good for business.
