This is our Purpose. It’s why we come to work every day. It’s a commitment shared by our 40,000 associates, uniting us as One VF and leading us to achieve great things together. OUR PURPOSE DEFINED Our Purpose statement was developed over the course of one year using a thoughtful approach that included input from more than 1,000 VF associates and external stakeholders and experts. The result? We confirmed that our Purpose is not only who we are today, but who we’ve always been. Respect for people and our planet has underpinned our decision-making and actions since our founding in 1899. Delivering products and experiences that enable active sustainable and active lifestyles of all types is tightly woven throughout our heritage. WE POWER is about how the collective "WE" of VF use our size, scale and resources to influence the industry, and the people whose passions we fuel, in a highly impactful way. MOVEMENTS are focused and sustained efforts in collaboration with our entire ecosystem of stakeholders, creating positive societal impact based on shared ideas and the vision of a better future. SUSTAINABLE is about facilitating the ability for individuals, communities and our planet to thrive, and meeting our fundamental needs for well-being and fulfillment. ACTIVE means engaging in energetic and fulfilling pursuits that allow us to show up and lean into life with our whole selves — emotionally, physically and socially. LIFESTYLES speak to connecting more deeply to the ways of life that are expressed through the behaviors, customs, cultures and activities of our consumer ecosystem. FOR THE BETTERMENT OF PEOPLE AND OUR PLANET answers the fundamental question: To what end are we doing all of this? It’s the reason our Purpose matters. And it gives greater meaning to the work we do. OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES Our Guiding Principles inform how we show up in all aspects of our work.
