The Wolf & Badger 2022 Sustainability Report

by Wolf & Badger

Following our B Corp certification in 2021, we've been working hard to strengthen and improve our sustainability and ethics commitments. An important step is to start communicating publicly our achievements, goals and learnings with our wider community. Therefore, we published our first annual sustainability report at the end of 2022. This was an exciting moment for us as it’s the first time we’ve shared a detailed account of our sustainability and ethics progress. Transparency is critical, therefore we are striving to be honest in our communications. This will enable all our stakeholders to hold us accountable, celebrate our wins and push for improvements when we're lagging. This report is an important step on our journey.

We know long, overly-complicated documents can be laborious to read, so we've intentionally kept the report succinct and straight down to business. With that, we've celebrated our progress so far but outlining our future direction with three clear and intentional goals for the year ahead along with a roadmap with how to achieve them. While we still have a lot of work to do, these goals are a realistic and attainable starting point to make Wolf & Badger the best it can be.

1. Ensure 100% of our brands have had their sustainability credentials vetted by our team

2. Help our designers improve their sustainable practice by providing education, support and guidance on their journey 

3. Implement our Net Zero Roadmap and take tangible steps to be Carbon Neutral by 2025 and reach Net Zero by 2030 

The report takes a holistic approach, tackling both our environmental and social responsibilities. This is important as we want to ensure our partnerships and brand community reflect our values. As part of this we help brands on this journey by ensuring they're supported in setting their own sustainability and ethics agendas. We're proud to be the first established multi-brand retailer to clearly index our entire product catalogue according to sustainability attributes. This gives both our brands and customers opportunity to engage in the sustainability and ethics conversation and push for wide-spread change. 

As part of our ongoing commitments to improving our Environmental, Social and Governance practices and our B Corp score we will continue to publish annual reports. We hope that these will develop and become more robust as we continue to grow our sustainability strategy.
