Get To Know Our Purpose-Driven Brands

May 13, 2022by Gabby - F&F

Have you ever noticed the little encircled 'B' labelled on products? Whilst little, this symbol has a big impact and is a way for customers to instantly recognise that businesses are doing good! Here at F&F you'll be happy to know (if not already) that we are a Certified B Corp and are using our power to solve social and environmental problems, and balance purpose and profit.

As a purpose-led business, becoming a B Corp was the obvious step for us early on in our F&F journey. 

In Australia, there are just over 200 businesses who are B Corp, 20 of which we stock right here at F&F! Let's get to know some of your fave B Corp Brands who are using their power for purpose!

Green + Kind Green + Kind

Green + Kind

Green + Kind is founded by the founders of Flora & Fauna and as such, becoming a B Corp was a no brainer. 

Green + Kind is heavily focused on conservation whether that be marine, animal or the environment. With this in mind, creating products that are eco friendly, ethical and work was essential.

Green + Kind is also a member of 1% For The Planet, meaning 1% of all Green + Kind sales are donated each year to environmental non-profit partners.
