Unilever ANZ – Certified B Corporation
Unilever Australia and New Zealand has been part of the B Corporation community since 2022. B Corps are a growing network of organisations committed to meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability.
What is a B Corp?
The B stands for ‘benefit for all’. Once an organisation becomes a B Corp, they join a movement of more than 6000 businesses worldwide that aim to lead systems change to support an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy for all.
The certification is independently administered by a non-profit organisation called B Lab which measures the verifiable positive impact a company is having through its policies and practices across five areas – governance, workers, communities, customers and the environment.
Why is Unilever ANZ a B Corp?
On any given day, millions of Aussie and Kiwi households use our products, so we have both a responsibility and an opportunity to use our scale as a force for good. Our purpose is to brighten everyday life for all. For us this means working collaboratively with suppliers, our team members, the partners that sell our products and the people who enjoy them every day. We want to create a coalition of the willing, to galvanise a stronger, more equitable and regenerative economy for all.
We are accelerating progress across four sustainability priorities: climate, nature, plastics, and livelihoods. This includes working on our climate transition action plan, sustainable sourcing and innovating packaging and products to reduce plastic waste.
What’s next for Unilever ANZ?
We’re proud of the progress we’ve made. Being a Certified B Corp adds an extra layer of accountability and encourages us to be even more transparent. We are now mapping our actions and strategy against the new B Corp standards published in April 2025, to ensure we continuously improving our impact.
