    While the world continues to be drawn in increasingly complex lines, the house is maintaining its course with confidence and vigilance

Hermès recognised by the Vigilance Plan award

Hermès received in July the Vigilance Plan Award at the Transparency Awards 2026, organised by Labrador Transparency.

This distinction recognizes the quality of the house's vigilance plan and the clarity of the information shared about its supply chain, as well as the dialogue engaged with stakeholders.
This award is a continuation of its first vigilance plan published in 2023. Year after year, Hermès continues to improve the quality and accessibility of its extra-financial information, in order to share with all its stakeholders high-standard, accessible and clear information.
True to its humanist culture and artisanal model, the house cultivates permanent progress by combining responsibility, quality and transparency.
