Our Sustainability Efforts

Activating Our Purpose for the Future

Our team at L.L.Bean is committed to ensuring sustainable and responsible practices across our business, from the materials we use to the vendors we work with to the causes for which we support. We’re on a constant mission to care for all of our stakeholders: our customers, employees, vendors, communities and the natural environment.

“My great-grandfather L.L. was a conservationist, understanding the connection between the joy of the outdoors and the need to protect our precious resources. Land access and preservation has always been one of L.L.Bean's core values.”

Shawn Gorman, Executive Chairman of the Board and Great-Grandson of L.L. Bean
