Shein‘s carbon emissions from transporting products climbed 13.7% in 2024, the online fast-fashion retailer’s sustainability report showed on Friday, and its 2023 transport emissions were 18% higher than previously reported after a recalculation.

Shein uses mainly air freight to send cheap clothes directly from suppliers in China to shoppers around the world, a more carbon-intensive supply chain model compared to traditional apparel retailers that ship more of their products on container vessels.
