I am joined by Josie Morris MBE. Josie is the MD of Woolcool Ltd, a 2nd Generation family business and a Certified B-Corp business.
What is a B-Corporation?
Certified B Corporations are a kind of business that balances purpose and profit. They are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment. They are a community of leaders, driving a global movement of people using business as a force for good.
There are a number of tools and links on the B Corporation website that allow you to assess where you are in terms of the requirements for certification.
During the show Josie explains why this process was right for her family and for the business.
Josie is MD at Woolcool, a UK based, 2nd Generation, family business founded by her mother in 2009. Woolcool are leading innovators in their sector, producing insulated packaging using Sheep Wool, providing a sustainable alternative to Polystyrene.
