The Certification Journey

If your business is less than one year in service, obtaining a Pending B Corp™ status is a great way to get a head start on your certification. By taking this step you are starting as you mean to go on, and putting sustainability at the core of your operations.

With a once-off fee and quicker verification times, this is a great opportunity.

This step is not required, a company can wait until one year of service and go into B Corp™ Certification.

For companies that have one year of business operations, they can jump right into the B Corp™ Certification. This is the best way to measure and analyse your business. Once certified your business will be joining a community of changemakers, holding themselves accountable and sharing their social and environmental impacts publicly.

Congrats-you’re a B Corp™ ! In order to ensure continuous improvement and to keep up with current and relevant social and environmental standards, B Corps are required to recertify every 3 years. This is a great way to set goals for your business and improve your impact over time.

Becoming a B Corp is the start of the journey. Not the destination. It's about making a commitment to continuous improvement. A journey beyond just words. A journey of doing.
