Wild Thang is incredibly proud to share that our business is now B Corp Certified, it is one of the company's biggest milestones in our history. We are so excited to be joining a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact. B Corp Certification is a rigorous and comprehensive process that evaluates a company’s impact on its workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment. We are now on a mission: “To deliver one world-class solution that elevates creative branded clothing, merchandise, and print through more sustainable practices and ethical production, ‘The Wild Thang Way’”.

This major milestone reflects a journey rooted in purpose, passion, and the belief that business can and should be a force for good. As a B Corp and an industry that manufactures and distributes personalised custom apparel, workwear, uniforms, sportswear to corporate gifts or giveaways, promotional items, merchandise, swag and many other types of printed campaign collateral, we are now counted among businesses that have genuine values and ethics, helping lead a global community and movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.
We had a HUGE day of celebrations at Wild Thang HQ, followed by an evening drinks reception at Baby Club House in Liverpool City Centre, attended by the team, clients, partners, friends, and family. In the morning, our Managing Director, Andrew Dwerryhouse, stood in front of our wonderful team and other key partners to proudly announce and literally raise the flag on becoming officially B Corp Certified while giving thanks to the Lord Mayor, all the team and partners that have supported making this moment possible!

At the evening drinks reception celebration, both Andrew and Carrie Dwerryhouse, our ESG manager, gave an overview of the 2.5-year journey it has taken to get officially certified and what it means to now be a business that is focused on being a force for good. Surrounded by our team, clients, suppliers, partners, family and friends, we took time to thank everyone who has supported us and raise a glass to this very important milestone moment to make it a truly unforgettable day in Wild Thang's 29-year history.

Our ESG endeavours are at the heart of our company culture. We’re proud to be a trusted branding partner that protects clients' brand reputation and mitigates supply chain risk, while making a genuinely measurable ESG difference. Back in early 2023, we publicly launched Wild Thang’s 8-point Long-Term Sustainability Pledge at the Good Small Business Awards, pledge 8 is where we first shared our intent to become B Corp Certified. To say we’ve achieved this now is not only a significant moment for our team and business, but also another stepping stone, and progress never stops in our journey to make even further progress. At Wild Thang, we’ve always done things ‘The Wild Thang Way’.

We are purchasing and planting trees for verified global reforestation projects and funding verified Carbon avoidance projects on behalf of every staff member and for every order received from our clients. Since February 2023, we've planted over 65,000 trees and supported eighteen verified carbon avoidance projects, preventing the emission of over 4,500 tCO2e. That is the equivalent of 3,413 long-haul flights, 13,332 m2 of sea ice saved and over 11 million miles driven. This is just one aspect of our mission to reach Carbon Net Zero by 2030.

As part of our journey to B Corp Certification, ‘The Wild Thang Way’ ethos eight core standards across our business have been a central part of achieving our certification goal, forming the foundation of how we operate, collaborate, and evolve. These include: a commitment to world-class delivery, the power of creativity, a positive and fun workplace culture, professionalism at every touchpoint, a strong team and family ethos, a drive for continuous improvement, the highest quality and standards, and a deep respect and responsibility for our people, planet, and partners. These values are more than internal principles, they are our blueprint for building a better business and a better future.

Internally and externally, these journeys can never happen without complete commitment, expert support and partnership. Every member of the Wild Thang family has been part of helping make this special moment happen, but especially our ESG manager Carrie Dwerryhouse, who has been the driving force to get officially certified over the past 360 days. All our hard work has finally paid off. Brabners law firm very kindly gave us some important free related legal advice. We also want to extend a special thank you to the 2030hub team, who have been a true partner, giving invaluable guidance which has helped us navigate the B Corp Certification process and has supported completing our carbon audits.
As a world-class team and industry leaders, we think it’s all about trust and every company should be asking the ‘WHY’ question and only aligning with suppliers they genuinely trust who have shared values and ethics. We know that there is still much to be done in the future, but we are incredibly proud to be part of the B Corp community. We can’t wait to embed ourselves into this mission and are excited to stand alongside other businesses that are a genuine force for good for both people and planet!
