The authors provide the definition of corporate social responsibility, the main areas of a CSR strategy and its potential benefits using examples of good practices undertaken by large clothing companies that operate globally: H&M, CCC S.A., Adidas, LPP S.A. CSR policies pursued by these brands are an expression of their concern for the environment, society and the future of our planet.
