Prime Cotton, a company of GP Cotton Holdings, a leader in Azerbaijan's cotton and textile industry, has achieved another international success.

By obtaining the "Supplier Plus" certificate from the international Sedex (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange) platform and the membership certificate from the International Cotton Association (ICA), the company has once again confirmed its reliability and commitment to responsible business principles, further strengthening its adherence to ethical and sustainability principles in its operations. This is not just a document for Prime Cotton, but a global recognition of trust built over many years.

Sedex "Supplier Plus" membership is an indicator of the company's commitment to transparency and sustainability principles. This certificate not only creates additional trust for partners but also offers customers a more reliable choice in the supply chain.

ICA membership, in turn, provides Prime Cotton with broader participation opportunities in the international cotton market. This also demonstrates the company's commitment to fair and safe trade principles.

Today, more than 3,000 employees and over 7,000 farmers stand with Prime Cotton. The success achieved through their joint efforts is a contribution not only to the company but also to the development of Azerbaijan's cotton growing sector as a whole.

As the country's largest cotton company, Prime Cotton celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, experiencing the pride of adding international value to local products.

The company does not intend to stop there. Prime Cotton is actively working to obtain other globally recognized certificates such as Better Cotton and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard). The goal is to build a more transparent, sustainable, and stronger production model for our society and future generations.
