Who is Javier Goyeneche?
Javier Goyeneche is a renowned Spanish entrepreneur, author, and sustainability leader, known worldwide as the founder of ECOALF, a fashion brand that uses high-quality recycled materials.

With a focus on the circular economy and environmental protection, Goyeneche has established himself as one of the most influential voices in the debate on how the fashion industry can be a powerful force for change.
His professional career took off in 1994 when he founded his first company, Fun & Basics, a fashion accessories brand that grew rapidly before being sold. This experience gave him an understanding of the fashion business model, but it also led him to reflect deeply on the industry’s environmental impact. This realization led him to found ECOALF in 2012—named in honor of his son—with the vision of creating a sustainable fashion brand that would not only avoid depleting natural resources but also help clean up the oceans.
One of Javier Goyeneche’s major achievements is his Upcycling the Oceans project, an initiative that has removed hundreds of tons of trash from the Mediterranean Sea and transformed it into high-quality materials for his products. This initiative has garnered global recognition and has demonstrated that a commitment to the environment can be a successful business strategy. Goyeneche’s work is based on the idea that technology and innovation are the keys to solving today’s major environmental challenges.
