March is B Corp Month: a month-long celebration of businesses with the sought-after and hard-to-obtain B Corp certification. Securing B Corp means that businesses meet high standards of social, ethical and environmental performance, and are transparent and accountable.

We’ll be involved in one of the B Local Gloucestershire events later this year, and in the meantime, we’re proud to champion a number of B Corp members:

B Corp Month is a chance to celebrate a different way of doing business — one that balances purpose with profit and recognises that companies can be a force for good. It shines a spotlight on businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability, while also encouraging wider conversations about what responsible business should look like today. At its heart, B Corp Month is about showing that success is not just measured by financial growth, but by the positive impact a company has on its people, communities, and the planet.

This couldn’t align more with the ethos of Together Gloucestershire if we tried! We are playing a pivotal role in localising the supply chain and procurement processes in Gloucestershire, so that we can drive more economic benefit for the county, and help assure the multiplier effect that comes from spending money within the local economy. Watch our explainer video to see why this matters so much! Beyond celebration, B Corp Month is also a call to action for you. It encourages businesses of all sizes to reflect on your impact and consider how you can contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable economy. Whether it’s reducing environmental footprints, supporting fair wages, or strengthening community ties, the B Corp movement demonstrates that positive change is both possible and profitable. We’re proud to be playing our part!
