The British retailer Joanie Clothing, which specializes in modern vintage apparel, has earned B Corporation certification. With this achievement, Joanie Clothing joins an elite network of 7,000 B Corp-certified companies globally, including more than 1,400 in the UK.
In his enthusiastic welcome of Joanie Clothing into the thriving B Corp community, Chris Turner, Executive Director of B Lab UK, emphasized the movement’s overarching goal of redefining business practices for the greater good. As stated by Lucy, Brand Director of Joanie Clothing, “We’ve always tried to take a forward-thinking, conscious outlook towards the products we create, choosing the most environmentally responsible fabric or yarn for all our designs, made by accountable suppliers who are audited to best-in-class levels both socially and environmentally – and our B Corp Certification confirms that.”
A company’s impact is assessed rigorously by the B Corp certification across five key categories: governance, workers, community, environment, and customers.
