We’re proud to be a certified B Corp
So, what is a B Corp?
B Corps don’t just say they’re making a difference; they are verified to do so. To become a B Corp, we had to – in the words of the B Corp movement – “meet high standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability”. We needed to show we met rigorous standards in five key areas. Each one of these Impact Pillars is scored, and we had to get a total of over 80 to be certified. We’re proud to say our overall B Impact Score was 95, and we’re already working on plans to improve on this at our next assessment in 2027.
governance
our score: 15.2 out of 20
This pillar is a measure of how we make sure we are considering all stakeholders when making decisions. B Corps must also amend their legal governing documents to require their board of directors to balance profit, people and planet.
workers
our score: 25.3 out of 40
This looks at the value we put on the safety and wellbeing of our colleagues. Our people are at the heart of our success, and we work to create a supportive, inclusive workplace that fosters growth, ensures fair wages and promotes work-life balance.
community
our score: 18.4 out of 40
What impact do we have on the area around us? Our sponsorship of junior football and work with the local school are just a couple of examples of the way we engage and support the community we work and live in.
environment
our score: 32.7 out of 53
An assessment of how we are treating our environmental responsibilities. This includes initiatives such as our efforts to champion wildlife conservation and our membership of LEAF, as well as our general work to reduce our environmental impact and improve our sustainability.
customers
our score: 3.2 out of 5
The final pillar is about how we look after our customers, which ties in with our commitment to delivering high quality products for our customers, both commercial buyers and the retail customers who buy our VEG TABLE range.
