We’re Proudly a Certified B Corporation!
But what does it mean? Certified B Corporations are businesses that meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. B Corps are accelerating a global culture shift to redefine success in business and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy. B Corps are audited every 3 years and the process involves looking (deeply) into every single aspect of the business. It’s a community of leaders wanting to use business as a force for good!
Why did we become a B Corp?
Mr & Mrs Coconut had heard from others that it was the most comprehensive and credible form of certification out there – Raglan Food Co was already Living Wage and Carbon Zero certified, but the B Corporation is something that assesses every single area of your business. How you interact with your Community, Suppliers, Customers, Team, Environment, and your Governance. We were amazed at the level of detail the assessment covers; literally no stone is left unturned! We wanted to be held accountable to the highest possible standard and B Corp seemed like the right path to go down. The entire process took nearly 2 years, so we were thrilled to be the first yoghurt company in New Zealand to become a Certified B Corporation – with a total score of 96.7! Another step on our journey of lifting the vibe and doing business better.
RFC was named one of B Corp’s ‘Best for the World 2022’ companies!
Out of 5,000 Certified B Corporations worldwide, Raglan Food Co was named one of the ‘Best for the World’ companies in the Environment impact area for 2022. Making the top 5 percent as a relatively small business is no small feat, and the team was stoked to see our environmental efforts being recognised! We aim to improve our overall score even further at our next audit, continuing to use our business to lift the vibe, across everything we do.
