We are delighted to announce that PhileoL Madagascar, member of the PhileoL group and key supplier of Comptoir des Huiles vegetable oils, has received B Corp certification with a score of 101.7 !
What is the B-corp label?
The term “B Corp” stands for “Benefit Corporation” .
Awarded by the non-profit organization B Lab, this label is the most well-known and reliable on a global scale, bringing together companies keen to meet demanding environmental and social impact criteria.
PhileoL's fight
PhileoL, which was created in 2008, stems from the desire of our founders Stéphane and Virginie to economically develop the poorest regions of Madagascar by promoting the natural resources present. The oilseed sector is today positioned as a sustainable source of income for this population which cyclically fights against famine. By establishing a direct supply system from farmers, the sector pays local producers profitably and fairly.
What impact for Comptoir des Huiles?
This B-Corp certification validates our commitment to generating a positive impact on employees and the Comptoir des Huiles community, as well as for our planet. It also highlights our commitment to sustainable and ethical production, ensuring that Comptoir des Huiles products are not only good for you, but also for the world around us.
Our key objective: to have a real lasting impact. All this while being ethical from the sourcing of our seeds, improving the daily lives of one of the poorest populations in the world, by offering our consumers natural products with perfectly controlled traceability!
