Cotton Incorporated has unveiled a completely reimagined CottonWorks™ platform. More than just a redesign, the newly launched site marks a pivotal digital transformation one that brings forward-thinking tools, fashion-forward design, and comprehensive resources to the fingertips of global apparel and textile professionals.
With today’s industry landscape rapidly evolving, Cotton Incorporated’s relaunch comes at a crucial moment. Shifting business models, reduced in-person factory visits, and increased demands around compliance, sustainability, and speed-to-market have transformed the way textile professionals operate. CottonWorks™ has emerged as a direct response to these shifts providing an intuitive, user-focused experience that seamlessly integrates learning, sourcing, development, and marketing tools in one centralized platform.
In today’s landscape, companies continue to evolve the way they do business, and so do we. Today’s professionals are working in a very different environment than they were even just a few years ago… They need reliable, in-depth knowledge that helps them tackle challenges like compliance and product development.

The platform made its global debut at Cotton ConneXions – Where Innovation Meets Opportunity, an exclusive industry event hosted in Hong Kong this past May. The reveal attracted over 255 professionals representing 124 companies across 12 countries, all of whom witnessed firsthand the platform’s potential to reshape industry workflows.
Industry leaders are already taking note. Doug Tepper, Vice President of Sourcing, Quality, Compliance & ESG at J.Jill, praised the platform’s breadth and usability:
