The Body Shop

The body shop started in Brighton, England in 1976.

Their founder Dame Anita Roddick began mixing her own products and infusing them with a new idea: that business could be a force for good. Following her vision, for 40 years they’ve been rule breaking, never faking and change making. Now they have over 3,000 stores in 66 countries and employ over 22,000 people who help bring their unique blend of ethical beauty with a sense of humour and serious purpose to the world.

Never afraid to stand out from the crowd and stand up for what’s right, they search the world for the finest ethically-sourced ingredients to create a range of naturally-inspired beauty products.

Today their dedication to business as a force for good is stronger than ever. As part of their Enrich Not Exploit™ Commitment, they’ve made it their mission to enrich their products, their people and their planet. That means working fairly with their farmers, suppliers and helping communities thrive through our Community Trade program, being 100% vegetarian and always and forever being firmly against animal testing.
