Nike steps up sustainability drive

Nike Inc has caught onto the sustainability trend in China in a bid to capture young shoppers' hearts, as demonstrated when it opened a state-of-the-art logistics facility last week.

The sportswear giant officially launched the latest phase of its Nike China Logistics Center in Taicang, a county-level city within Suzhou, Jiangsu province, last Thursday.

"The completion of the CLC's third building marks an important milestone for Nike's development in China. It also demonstrates Nike's great confidence in Taicang's investment climate and China's future economic development," said Angela Dong, vice-president of Nike.
