Vottera Launches Regenerative Organic Certified® Apparel Line, Expanding the Mission of Ethical and Traceable Fashion
Los Angeles, USA — [October 24, 2025] — Vottera, an ethical, traceable, and impactful Regenerative Organic Certified® (ROC™) apparel brand, has officially launched. Created by the team behind Terra Thread and Gallant International, Inc., Vottera builds upon a strong foundation of responsible sourcing and transparent supply chains to offer everyday essentials crafted with regenerative practices at their core.
The new collection features unisex hoodies, sweatshirts, T-shirts, polos, and beanies, all made exclusively from Regenerative Organic Certified® cotton. This launch represents a bold step forward in making regenerative agriculture an integral part of the fashion industry.
ROC™ Cotton Initiatives Empowering Indigenous Farmers
Gallant International achieved ROC™ certification in 2022 and currently works with more than 1,250 smallholder farmers across Odisha and Karnataka, India. This established network has made it possible for Vottera to debut as a fully certified ROC™ brand from day one—a rare milestone in the sustainable apparel sector.
Vottera’s 2024 cotton harvest is sourced directly from 432 Indigenous farmers who follow regenerative practices that improve soil health, restore biodiversity, and support thriving rural communities. By championing regenerative organic agriculture, Vottera is not just creating clothing—it is building a system designed to heal the planet.
“We saw an opportunity to create something truly transformative,” said Vik Giri, Founder and CEO of Gallant International. “Vottera isn’t just about making clothing; it’s about building a regenerative system that empowers farmers and helps heal the world.”
A Movement Toward Regenerative Fashion
Vottera’s commitment to 100% ROC™ cotton ensures that every garment is traceable to the last mile—from seed to stitch. The brand invites consumers and corporate partners to “Vote for the Earth” with each purchase, creating meaningful impact across the supply chain.
“Various research shows that regenerative organic agriculture delivers measurable benefits: improving soil health, increasing biodiversity, enhancing water retention, and capturing carbon,” said Vizan Giri, Co-Founder of Vottera. “With Vottera, we’re extending that positive impact from farm to wardrobe.”
Through regenerative farming, Vottera aims to address multiple global challenges at once—soil degradation, climate change, and rural poverty—by creating apparel that contributes to carbon sequestration and ecosystem restoration.
Building on Terra Thread’s Sustainable Legacy
The launch of Vottera is a natural extension of the success of Terra Thread, a brand widely recognized for its organic cotton bags, which are sold through Urban Outfitters, Target, Nordstrom, and other sustainability-focused retailers. Terra Thread was created to reduce reliance on synthetic fibers like polyester.
“Terra Thread began as our way of reducing reliance on polyester,” explained Vizan Giri. “With Vottera, we’re continuing that journey by creating apparel that’s natural, regenerative, and beneficial for both people and the planet.”
Vottera builds on that legacy by shifting focus from accessories to everyday apparel—meeting the growing consumer demand for clothing that is both stylish and environmentally responsible.
