NOABRANDS is a global group of visual merchandising brands. Our Brands each have their own unique strengths, but are all united by the same passion, expertise, and determination to advise our retail clients in designing retail spaces that optimize the visuality of their brand and the visibility of their product. Be it through catalog or custom solutions, we build in-store experiences that prompt shoppers to engage and Visualize Anything.
Headquartered in Barcelona, Spain, we are a team of over 600 teammates, brand partners, designers and builders. We have a worldwide footprint with over 200,000 square meters of production facilities in Spain, China, United States, and Mexico, plus showrooms in New York, Colorado, Milan, Paris, Barcelona, and Shanghai and a commercial sales force across the world.
With a strong heritage in the mannequin business – in fact, we are the largest mannequin manufacturer worldwide – we provide a broad array of visual merchandising solutions from busts and forms, product displays, store fixtures, props, as well as the next generation of retail technology.
Across our Brands, we have a bias for serving our global clients with vertically-integrated, on-continent for-continent manufacturing. Our business model ensures end-to-end control of our service, speed, and sustainability, three pillars on which we’ve built our long-lasting relationships with the world’s best retailers.
Our Brands partner with retailers to shape their creative vision, and create engaging, memorable, and emotional in-store experiences.
At NOABRANDS, sustainability is a key pillar of our long-term growth strategy. Our Brands are each deeply involved in the communities in which we operate, and our constant efforts toward reducing the impact of our materials and manufacturing stem from our responsibility towards our global communities. Our latest sustainability initiatives like joining The Fashion Pact and collaborating on materials research with the Polytechnic University of Catalonia and the University of Pennsylvania are big steps in the right direction toward driving change in our industry.
We firmly believe that there is an interplay between supply chain, outsourcing practices and sustainability. That is why our global business model is characterized by a bias for full vertical integration, producing on continent for continent, and ensuring end-to-end control of our global production processes. This enables us to ensure that our downstream impact is properly managed from the source and that clients have a comprehensive picture of the footprint of the products they purchase.
The Business Ambition for 1.5ºC program is made up of large global business corporations that aim to reduce the Earth’s overall temperature increase to a maximum of 1.5°C and achieve zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
This new commitment is part of our effort to develop a sustainable business model for the visual merchandising industry.
Our journey to sustainability doesn't start now. We have been pioneers in taking action and creating innovations that have turned NOABRANDS into a sustainable company today:
— Adopting sustainable materials and processes.
— Promoting transparency and traceability.
— Working to turn supplier relationships into strategic partnerships.
— Reinventing production and purchasing practices.
— And in the recycling of our products at the end of the cycle of life.
Our circular business model is designed to respond to each of the needs of the retailers.
But our journey towards sustainability, in tune with the SBT (Science Based Targets), has new ones until we reach the final destination: 2050 carbon neutrality.
«Our initiatives are aim to create more sustainable circular systems and solutions, aimed at achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, are great steps in the right direction to drive change in our industry».
Marisa Tendero, NOABRANDS CEO
