Classic Cottages is a B Corp

We are delighted to announce that we are now B Corp Certified! We are so pleased to be part of the incredible B Corp community, all working to make the business world a better place.

 

Tanya Pascoe, Operations Manager, says: "Our dedicated team has worked so hard on the B Corp verification process, and we are so proud to now be B Corp certified; an accolade which reflects and celebrates Classic’s long-standing values."

What is B Corp?

To become B Corp Certified means that a company has met the high standards set by B Lab. A company’s social and environmental impacts are assessed thoroughly, and to achieve certification, rigorous measures must be met. 

What makes Classic a B Corp?

While Classic has held these values close to our heart since our beginnings in 1977, the B Corp verification process has provided us with a platform in which to recognise them. From volunteering days for staff members and supporting local communities and charities, to implementing renewable solar energy at our headquarters in Cornwall and working with owners to make their property eco friendly, our excellent B Corp score of 90.2 celebrates our commitment to these standards. We look forward to continuing to challenge ourselves to improve in the future.

Overall B Impact Score

Based on the B Impact assessment, Classic Cottages earned an overall score of 90.2. The median score for ordinary businesses who complete the assessment is currently 50.9.
