A Devon dairy has become the first UK cheesemaker to be certified as a B Corporation (B Corp).
Sharpham Dairy, located on the Sharpham Estate on the River Dart near Ashprington, has joined a global group of establishments judged to have a high standard of ethics and that balance profit with purpose.
In order to attain B Corp status, which is administered by US non-profit organisation B Lab, companies must be able to demonstrate responsible practices in five impact areas: governance, workers, community, environment and customers.
