Jonak Sustainability Actions

B Corp certification

In December 2024, JONAK officially became a certified B Corp company with a score of 87.84. This international movement unites businesses committed to a more responsible, inclusive, and sustainable economy. Achieving this certification means we meet rigorous standards for social and environmental impact, transparency, and accountability.

Joined Leather Working Group

JONAK joined LWG in April 2023. 97% of our leather is certified. 55% is classified as Gold, Silver, or Bronze.

Traceability on products

Today, 95.5% of our products meet JONAK's strict traceability criteria. The French AGEC law requires traceability up to the finishing stage—but we go further, tracing materials back to at least the raw material supplier (leather, soles, etc.). Traceability info is available on every product page under “learn more about the traceability of this model”.

Opened repair workshop

We launched L’ATELIER JONAK, a shoe repair workshop located in central Paris, operating since 2021 to service shoes from our Paris-area stores. In other regions, we partner with local cobblers near our boutiques. This boosts responsiveness, avoids unnecessary shipments, and supports local businesses.

Audited workshops

87% of our workshops have been audited by external firms according to ILO and local labor standards, focusing on working hours, pay, rest days, infrastructure safety, non-discrimination, no forced labor, benefits and employee rights. Corrective action plans are implemented, and we work closely to improve identified points.

French craftsmanship materials

Our boutique design is made in France. Furniture is crafted by ZM in Meudon. Lighting by Secante and Aristide, based near Paris. Signage is made exclusively from premium paper sourced from offcuts of other productions. We work with FemOffset, whose workshop is in Choisy-le-Roi. Decor elements are reused in several window displays and distributed internally to avoid warehouse transfers.
