Happy B Corp Month! This March is B Corp month, an opportunity to spread awareness about what being a \u2018better business\u2019 really means to us here at Mindful Chef<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September 2018, we proudly became the first recipe box in the world to be certified as a B Corp<\/a> (short for \u2018Better Corporation\u2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re one of just 369 B Corps in the UK<\/a>, a collective of businesses that balance purpose and profits. We focus on how our decisions impact our team, customers, suppliers, community and environment as a whole \u2013 aiming to use our business as a force for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following Q&A, with our Sustainability Manager Emma, gives an insight into just a few of the ways we\u2019re putting people and the planet first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is it important to be a B Corp?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Businesses must take action if we want to have a lasting positive change on both the environment and wider society. Being a B Corp<\/a> holds us accountable for our actions and is beneficial for everyone – discover other B Corp brands, united on our mission, here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did the partnership with One Feeds Two<\/a> come about?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Myles and Giles always wanted to build a business that would give back. And in 2017 we teamed up with the charity One Feeds Two<\/a>, so that for every meal you enjoy, we donate a school meal to a child living in poverty. Our community has now donated over 6 million meals<\/a> and counting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s Mindful Chef\u2019s carbon commitment?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Last year we proudly became Climate Neutral<\/a>. It\u2019s the first step on our journey to net zero by 2030, which involves reducing our emissions as close to zero as possible across our supply chain. Once we hit that, we\u2019ll invest in carbon removals to tackle anything left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the latest on our packaging mission? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our mission is to make all of our packaging 100% recyclable – for you and the planet. Discover our latest packaging low-down from everything that’s already recyclable to our brand new egg boxes here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay tuned this month for supplier stories, live events, glimpses behind the scenes with the MC team and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
