About this company
Cacotec is a digital venture founded and funded by Label Kings, a US-based company that has been in the apparel label industry for almost 30 years, working with many famous fashion brands like Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Theory, Tom Brady, Alexander Wang, etc.
Their team is focused on digitizing the apparel industry and helping eliminate the negative impact on our environment. The idea is to make the entire process of care labels more eco-friendly by using QR codes.
