famille is delighted to announce that it has been awarded the highly respected Good Business Charter accreditation, underscoring its unwavering commitment to ethical business practices and social responsibility.
The Good Business Charter is an independent certification recognising responsible business behaviour across ten key components. These components ensure that businesses operate with integrity, fairness and respect for all stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers and the environment.
Debbie Larrad, Founder of famille, said: “Our name, famille, reflects our belief that people and planet are deeply connected. It’s a name that speaks to our roots, relationships, and a vision for the future. We’re proud to build long-standing partnerships with our clients, nurturing trust and collaboration over time. Our supplier network is equally valued, playing a vital role in our shared mission of sustainability and community.
“The accreditation process has provided a great opportunity for our team to feel a sense of connection with the business and see how the Good Business Charter aligns with our values and ethos. It is helping facilitate ongoing conversations within the team to explore additional ways to embed this approach into our day-to-day thinking as well as strategic planning.
“We are incredibly proud to have achieved the Good Business Charter accreditation, which reflects our ongoing dedication to upholding the highest ethical standards in all our operations. It also reinforces our commitment to making a positive impact on our community and the environment.”
To earn the Good Business Charter accreditation, famille adhered to the following ten principles: real living wage; fair hours and contracts; employee wellbeing; employee representation; equality, diversity and inclusion; environmental responsibility; pay fair tax; commitment to customers; ethical sourcing and prompt payment to suppliers.
In a recent survey, 97% of people expressed that they value businesses that operate ethically and sustainably. The Good Business Charter’s independent certification distinguishes famille as a leader in ethical capitalism, highlighting its commitment to putting people and the planet first.
famille reflects the values we champion at the Good Business Charter through their commitment to responsible business practices. We are delighted to recognise their dedication to fostering sustainability, inclusivity and prioritising their employees. This accreditation highlights their commitment to putting people and the planet at the heart of their business. Jenny Herrera, CEO of the Good Business Charter
