Celebrating B Corp Month

March is B Corp Month, a time to celebrate businesses that are part of the B Corp community – companies that meet the highest standards of social and environmental impact while proving that business can be a force for good. This year’s theme, #GenB, highlights the nearly 10,000 Certified B Corporations worldwide that are redefining success in business – not just by making money, but by making a difference.

At Fat Beehive, we’ve been a proud part of the B Corp community since 2019. When we first got certified, our score of 119 put us in the top 10% of all B Corps globally. But we weren’t content to stop there. We kept pushing ourselves to do better, and now our latest score has jumped to 134 – placing us 9th in the UK and making us the only digital agency in the top 10. Something we’re very proud of.

For those who might not be familiar, becoming a B Corp isn’t just a one-time badge of honour – it’s a rigorous process that demands continuous improvement. Certified B Corps meet high standards of social and environmental impact, transparency, and accountability. It’s about using business as a force for good, considering not just profits but people and the planet, too.

At Fat Beehive, this ethos is at the heart of everything we do. We build open-source websites, craft meaningful brands, and create digital products that support organisations working to make the world a better place. Our B Corp certification reflects the way we treat our team, our clients, and our wider impact – whether that’s paying a real living wage, ensuring our projects meet high accessibility standards, or reducing our environmental footprint.

So, what does B Corp Month mean to us? It’s a chance to connect with like-minded businesses, share what we’ve learned, and celebrate the companies choosing to put purpose alongside profit. It’s a reminder that better business isn’t just possible – it’s already happening.

We love being part of the global B Corp movement and can’t wait to see more businesses join us on this journey. If you’re curious about what it means to be a B Corp, check out the official site, or just drop us a message – we’re always happy to chat about using business for good.

Here’s to another year of making an impact!
