The International Cotton Association (ICA) has inducted its senior director, data and traceability, Alia Malik as a member of its board. The ICA is an international cotton trade association and arbitral body and was set up 180 years ago in 1841 in Liverpool, UK.

The mission of the ICA is to protect the legitimate interests of all those who trade cotton, whether buyers or sellers. The organisation has more than 550 members from around the world and represents all sectors of the supply chain. The majority of the world’s cotton is traded internationally under ICA Bylaws & Rules, according to a press release by the ICA.

“I am delighted to join the board of one of the oldest organisations in the sector. Trade is crucial to driving demand for more sustainable cotton, and I am looking forward to contributing to ICA’s work,” said Alia Malik, senior director, data and traceability, Better Cotton.

Comprising 24 board members, the new board “continues to represent the ICA’s global membership across all sectors of the supply chain and builds on its commitment to engage the entire global cotton community.”
