We guide African companies toward recognised impact as Certified B Corps.

How can we help you prove your impact today?

B Corp Certification is a recognition that sets businesses apart for their commitment to social and environmental impact.

Our team of expert B Leaders is ready to guide your Certification journey, helping you prove your impact and join the global movement of business as a force for good.

  • B Corp Certification is a global certification awarded to companies that balance profit with purpose by meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. 

  • B Corps are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment.

What is a B Corp? 

How do you become a B Corp?

  • The median score for ordinary businesses that attempt the B Impact Assessment is 50.9 which is far below the required threshold of 80 points to become a B Corp. 

  • B Leaders are expertly trained to help you navigate the certification, starting with your assessment, identifying areas of opportunity and improvement to get you ready for submission, and as a guide through the verification process. 

  • B Leaders also have direct access to B Lab to help troubleshoot issues and conduct internal reviews to smooth the process.

Why use a Consultant?

  • Companies must score a minimum of 80 out of 200 points on the B Impact Assessment, which evaluates their impact on various stakeholders.

  • The certification process then involves a rigorous ‘Verification’ assessment administered by B Lab, the nonprofit organisation behind the B Corp movement.
