VF Corp, Hinrich Foundation partner to promote sustainable global trade

VF Asia has forged a partnership with philanthropic organization Hinrich Foundation that promotes sustainable global trade, to sponsor seven scholars to attend a one-year master’s program as part of the Global Trade Leader Scholarship Program. Candidates include those majoring in Manufacturing Systems Engineering and Management at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. After graduation, the scholars will commit two years of service with VF.

To date, seven scholars have completed the master program through VF’s involvement. Dipti Hassan, one of the seven scholars VF sponsored says the experience was an essential stepping-stone for the engineering career, and this opportunity could improve the manufacturing processes at VF.

The Global Trade Leadership Scholarship Program is exclusively offered to students from Bangladesh, where finding skilled industrial engineers can be challenging. VF hopes to leverage local cultural and operational expertise to spearhead growth in the country it began in 2014 and helps VF attract and train young talent in engineering.

With Bangladesh as a major hub for apparel manufacturing, the Hinrich Foundation partnership is key to fulfilling critical talent roles in VF facilities while also providing educational and professional opportunities to Bangladesh citizens.
