Swedish retailer H&M has announced a collaboration with Human Society International to promote the ethical treatment of animals across the fashion and beauty industries.

HSI's CEO Andrew Rowan commented 'It is always exciting to partner with a company that shares our passion for animal protection. Working with H&M to end cosmetics animal testing, and improve the lives of animals on farms, will set a high standard for others to follow. It will show that it not only makes good ethical sense to treat animals with kindness and compassion, but it makes good business sense too'.
