PLANET
Conscious Chocolate uses Ecotricity as the energy supplier for their factory unit, ensuring that it is powered by 100% renewable energy sources. They also have no gas supply, making their scope 2 carbon neutral. As a next step, we would like to see Conscious Chocolate report their scope 1 and 3 emissions alongside their plans for Net Zero.
PEOPLE
Conscious Chocolate is a UK-based company, and therefore we assume they adhere to UK employment regulations. They offer flexible hours to suit child-care for their employees, and provide opportunities to work from home. Conscious Chocolate aim to source Fairtrade ingredients where possible, which ensures protection for their suppliers.
ANIMALS
Conscious Chocolate’s products are 100% vegan.
BUSINESS
Conscious Chocolate uses recyclable or compostable plastic-free packaging. Their chocolate is certified organic by Soil Association Organic, and they avoid the use of palm oil. All of their cleaning products are also organically certified, although they do not clarify which certification they have. In the future, we would love to see an annual impact report to increase the transparency of Conscious Chocolate’s sustainability policies and practices, such as the measures that they have in place to protect the environment during production.
