We get what you’re saying Phil, we agree that B Corp alone is not sufficient. That is why we are measuring and setting Net Zero targets to the methodology of the Science Based Targets initiative and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
We also ensure that all our manufacturing sites hold internationally recognized food safety and quality certifications. We conduct carbon footprints for all our products to the PAS 2050 standard and the GHG Protocol. We have signed onto the Tonys Chocolonely Open Chain for our Cocoa sourcing.
We require all our ingredient suppliers to hold internationally recognized, independently verified ethical certifications such as SA 8000 and SMETA. We buy fair trade coffee. We ask all our suppliers to sign a Code of Conduct for social and environmental issues and so on and so on.
Basically, we take every step that we can to ensure we protect people and the environment and operate a sustainable business. I appreciate the feedback and that there are people like you who really care about sustainability and holding businesses to account, we don’t claim to always get it right, but we do always learn from our mistakes and we really do care.
