From Battlefield to Boardroom: Joe Whitten’s Journey in Textile Recycling and Education

Joe Whitten, the CEO and founder of Apparel Impact, a family- and veteran-owned textile recycling organization in Hooksett, has been featured in this week’s episode. The organization was recently named Veteran-Owned Business of the Year by the NH district of the U.S. Small Business Administration.

Joe talks about his military background and how it influenced his journey as an entrepreneur. He also discusses the importance of reducing textile waste through their recycling efforts. Apparel Impact is committed to creating a more sustainable future for generations to come by diverting textile waste from landfills.

Joe’s dedication to this cause, coupled with his entrepreneurial spirit and military experience, has led to the success of the organization and its recognition as a leader in the industry. He also talks about their new “Team Impact” comic book that aims to educate young people on the importance of recycling clothing.
