Alexandra (Mi Hub brand)

Alexandra, an MI Hub brand won a contract in January 2021 to provide winter uniforms for Covid-19 testing centre staff. The company has secured an agreement to supply staff at more than 100 Sodexo-managed drive and walk-through centres.

Mi Hub was recognised in the recent BVCA Report ‘Adapting with Purpose’. Produced in partnership with Grant Thornton, the report showcases the best examples of private equity-backed businesses and how they adapted to challenges of the pandemic in agile, efficient and exceptional ways.
Mi Hub was included for its business model adaption when it had to manage severe disruption to its supply chain and establish new supply routes when the pandemic swept the Globe.

ESG Journey

Mi Hub became the first uniform provider to join Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals (ZDHC)’s wastewater transparency programme, ‘Roadmap to Zero’. The group of brands aims to reduce and eventually eliminate hazardous chemicals from manufacturing and production processes in the textiles, leather and footwear industry. In 2020, Mi Hub pledged that 80% of its fabric volume would come from mills participating in wastewater testing by 2025 and being part of ZDHC’s network will help it to meet that target.

The business also launched its new ESG site, called ‘Mi ESG Hub’. As part of the company’s wider website relaunch, this new site will allow users to explore MiHub’s ESG pillars and objectives and how the business has been doing to achieve these goals. The site also hosts the MiHub’s most recent ESG report that lays out plans for it to achieve verified carbon neutrality on Scopes 1 and 2 by 2030 and Scope 3 by 2040.
