Being part of a responsible supply chain means choosing a distributor who cares, not just about business, but about the community, too.

For over 30 years, we’ve supported initiatives that make a real difference, from local charities to national campaigns. Whether it’s through fundraising, volunteering, or long-term partnerships, we believe in using our platform to give back in meaningful ways.

It’s one of the many reasons we aim to be a business you can feel proud to partner with. 

A legacy of care continues!

We’re excited to announce the launch of the PenCarrie Foundation, an independent grantmaking charity set up by our shareholders that's dedicated to creating brighter futures for disadvantaged children and young people across Devon.

By supporting local charities and projects that break down barriers and unlock opportunities, the PenCarrie Foundation hopes to drive lasting, meaningful change. At least 5% of PenCarrie profits are being committed each year to grant funding. It’s another way we’re proud to support and invest in the communities we call home.

Our team’s passion for giving back shines through our support of a staff-chosen charity. This year, we’re proud to support the Devon Air Ambulance Trust.

We also encourage and support personal fundraising efforts, fostering a culture of generosity, inclusion, and local pride.

For us, being a local business is about making people feel glad that we’re on their doorstep.  From funding a public defibrillator and a community bus shelter to sponsoring our local football team, Willand Rovers, we’re here to support the people around us.

And for over 20 years, we’ve laced up our running shoes for the Michelmores 5K, raising money for charity and celebrating the power of coming together. It’s one of the many ways we show up for our community, year after year.

As part of our commitment to reducing waste and making thoughtful choices about the products we handle, we're always on the lookout for new ways to give our garments a second life. 

Whether through recycling, repurposing or donating to good causes, it's all about making decisions that support our value of growing responsibly.

Community and care go beyond our borders, and we’re committed to making a positive impact wherever it’s needed most.

We’re proud to support charities like CR2EE, who regularly deliver much-needed clothing donations to Eastern Europe.

Feel free to reach out to Andrea; she’ll be happy to help with any of your questions.
