According to the company's 2021 impact report, the Florida-based Chico's FAS women's clothing line has aimed to reduce its energy, water, and waste output impacts over the next three calendar years. Over the next three years, Chico's FAS also plans to investigate and quantify prospects for value-added sustainable packaging.

Over the next three years, the business intends to have its brands adopt at least one new sustainable packaging opportunity annually. According to the company's 2021 impact report, Chico's FAS will also examine, disclose, and interact with tier 1 factories regarding their overall water, energy, and waste output in order to find possibilities to lessen their impact by at least 1% annually.

Another objective of Chico's FAS is to lower the environmental impact of its product development, manufacturing, and design processes over the next three years by introducing 2–3 new fabrics, innovations, technologies, or other efficiencies. For the top 80% of its tier 1 suppliers and manufacturers, the corporation also intends to use Higg Index sustainability reporting.

According to the company's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) highlights from the 2021 impact report, 41% of Soma bras were produced in factories that adhered to the ISO 14001:2015 standard, which lays out the specifications for an environmental management system that a company can use to improve its environmental performance. Additionally, Chico's received almost 92,000 pairs of laser-processed jeans.

Molly Langenstein, Chico's FAS president and CEO, said that Chico's has always aimed for continual progress in achieving ESG impact through customer-centric innovation. Their customers and staff remain at the center of everything they do as they develop as a company driven by women and for women. By connecting Chico's ESG commitment via the prism of their four strategy pillars—customer led, product obsessed, digital first, and operationally excellent—they hope to advance the interests of all their stakeholders and produce long-term value."
