THE WHAT? Natura &Co has been recognised as one of the world’s most ethical companies by the Ethisphere Institute. L’Oréal, Kao, Colgate Palmolive and Firmenich also made the 2022 list.
THE DETAILS The owner of Avon, The Body Shop and Aesop made the list for the first time this year, although its signature Natura brand has maintained a consistent presence on the list.
“Today, business leaders face their greatest mandate yet to be ethical, accountable, and trusted to drive positive change,” said Ethisphere CEO, Timothy Erblich. “We continue to be inspired by the World’s Most Ethical Companies honorees and their dedication to integrity, sustainability, governance, and community. Congratulations to Natura &Co for receiving this recognition.”
THE WHY? Keyvan Macedo, Sustainability Director at Natura &Co, commented, “Against all the uncertainty of the last two years, we’ve continued a relentless focus on making sure that the way we do business isn’t just good for us, it takes care of the planet and the communities we touch too. The choices we make each day across our Group and our family of iconic brands are guided by our Commitment to Life sustainability vision. It is an absolute honour for Natura &Co to be recognised with this award, adding to Natura’s strong track record of over a decade. But this doesn’t make us complacent – the challenges in the world loom large and we will keep pushing for more progress in the year ahead.”
