B Corp Certified
From the very beginning, putting people and the planet before profit has been our vision at Glen Lyon Coffee Roasters. That is why we are so proud to announce that as of 2021 we are now a B Corp certified business.
Part of a global movement using business as a force for good, B Corp companies meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, accountability and public transparency.
Achieving our B Corp certification has been a rigorous, year-long process that has assessed us on environment, community, governance, workers, and customers. It has been a hard road, but the results speak for themselves.
We are thrilled with our high score of 104.2 that we achieved on the impact assessment and hope to build on this in the years to come.
Our commitment to zero waste and having a positive environmental impact have seen us, among other things, pioneer the use of compostable coffee packaging in Scotland, install solar panels on our roastery roof and plant hundreds of trees in the Highlands.
Here are some of the steps that we have taken on this journey to becoming a purpose driven business:
B Corporations are committed to building strong, resilient communities and we are so grateful to be able play a part in both our amazing local community here in the Highlands of Scotland as well as the speciality coffee world at large.
We look forward to shouting from the mountain tops about this global movement that’s genuinely changing the way business is done in this precious world of ours.
