Testimonial

IGOR BOYADJIAN, Managing Director

The Macallan

“The Macallan sought the Butterfly Mark accreditation in 2020, in order to hold ourselves to the highest standards of external, independent accreditation within our industry, both now and in the future. We also strongly believe in the power of unity and of business collaboration and community to challenge the global issues we all must face head on now in the coming critical years.”

Testimonial

ULRIK GARDE DUE, CEO

Mark Cross

"Having Positive Luxury as a partner who we can trust and who can advise on an informed and unbiased level has been instrumental. The benchmarks put in place by Positive Luxury have encouraged further innovation and sustainable practices that in turn allow our customers to trust that when they become an owner of a Mark Cross piece, it is being held up to the highest standards set by the Butterfly Mark certification in line with updated official regulations."
