PROUD TO BE B CORP™
At L'OCCITANE, we believe in cultivating change so we can create a fairer, more equitable, more regenerative economy.
ONE PART OF A WHOLE
Our vision of the future is perfectly consistent with the B Corp movement, and we share a determination to use business as a force for good. That's why we're doing all we can to positively impact people and the planet, focusing on four key pillars: growing nature, revealing its wonders, crafting sensations, and acting locally to make change globally.
WHAT IS B CORP?
Launched in the United States in 2006, B Corp is now a global movement. Becoming a B Corp is a powerful lever for companies to work towards a more equitable, inclusive and regenerative economy. For us, it's about more than obtaining a certification; it's a unique chance to join an international community of businesses who are committed to continually finding new ways to improve their social and environmental impact.
THREE AREAS WHERE WE GO BEYOND
WE STOOD OUT FOR OUR FAIR TRADE PARTNERSHIPS THAT INVOLVE WORKING CLOSELY WITH COMMUNITIES, THE REDUCTION IN OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT, AND THE ACTIONS WE HAVE TAKEN TO CULTIVATE CHANGE FOR PEOPLE.
SUPPORTING OUR PRODUCERS IN WAYS THAT LAST
The fair relationships we have with our producers put people first, and help ensure economic stability for small farming businesses.
REDUCING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
One of the main ways in which we are reducing our environmental impact is through our ambitious "Reduce, Recycle, React" multi-pronged program, aimed at minimizing waste, and through waste-reduction measures implemented in our factories in France.
CULTIVATING CHANGE FOR PEOPLE
Since 1976, our philosophy has remained unchanged: People and nature matter. Supporting women's entrepreneurship in West Africa, fighting avoidable blindness, and helping new parents are just a few of our ongoing initiatives.
