Ace & Tate

We design and sell eyewear, including prescription glasses and sunglasses. Our goal is to provide well-designed eyewear and personalized eye care at a fair price. Founded in 2013, we operate over 85 stores across 9 countries with a team of 500-1000 employees. Glasses are designed in Amsterdam and start from €145, including prescription lenses.

We have been a certified B Corp since 2021 and plan to renew our certification in 2025. Our responsibility framework focuses on three areas: Environment, Social, and Governance. For the environment, we use materials with a lower environmental impact, like Tritan™ Renew for non-prescription sun lenses (up to 50% ISCC-certified recycled content). We also work to trace our products across all supplier levels.

Socially, we commit to ethical business practices and ensure the well-being and rights of everyone in our supply chain. All of our Tier 1 suppliers undergo ethical and environmental audits. We have also donated over 1,500 kg of lenses to support eye care in Ghana and Cambodia.

Our governance promotes responsible business practices, ethical leadership, and transparent oversight. This includes an annual Modern Slavery Act statement, a Supplier Code of Conduct, and a Speak Up policy.

We aim to bring common sense to the eyewear industry. We are committed to driving systemic change and accountability within our company and the industry as a whole. We see responsibility not as a checkbox, but as an integral part of how we operate.

Our core values include promoting responsible business practices through strong corporate governance, ethical leadership, and transparent oversight. This safeguards trust and enables long-term value creation. We are also committed to creating and nurturing an inclusive culture where our employees, partners, and customers feel seen, valued, and empowered.

Ace & Tate has around 700 eyewear experts working at its headquarters, stores, and optician teams across Europe. The culture is energetic, supportive, and proactive. Teams collaborate, celebrate successes, and keep a light atmosphere. The work environment encourages curious individuals eager to learn and continuously improve processes.

Ace & Tate is committed to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, building an inclusive culture that reflects global diversity and empowers its employees, partners, and customers. As a B Corp, it focuses on impact and customer-centric design.
