In 2016, while he was still at university, Clément and his friend Mathieu started working on a project to create a clothing brand, in which all products would be made from recycled materials. In early 2017, their brand Hopaal was born. Once the business plan had been deemed viable, they set up a team. In 2019, the objectives will be to manage production, activate communication and marketing, develop their approach and be increasingly transparent on all actions Hopaal carries out.
