Hawksmoor secures B Corp certification
A B Corp certification also verifies a restaurant’s ‘high’ ethical standards as it requires a commitment to ‘constant improvement, with companies required to recertify every three years’
British steakhouse and sustainable seafood restaurant, Hawksmoor, has revealed it has qualified for B Corp certification after a “long, rigorous” assessment.
It is reported that the Certified B Corporation are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.
In addition, Hawkmoor stands to join a global community of businesses audited and approved to “meet high environmental and social standards, accountability, and transparency”.
A B Corp certification also verifies a restaurant’s “high” ethical standards as it requires a commitment to “constant improvement, with companies required to recertify every three years”.
A group spokesperson said: “This is one of our most significant achievements. 16 years ago, we set out to start a business that we could be proud of. Of course, that meant great food, drink and service, but it also meant conducting ourselves with integrity and trying to do something positive.
“B Corp certification is like a global kite mark for businesses like ours, and is an extremely high bar, as far as we know no other UK restaurant group has achieved it.”
