We're a certified B Corporation

B Corp is a globally recognised certification awarded to organisations that can measurably prove, with full transparency and accountability, that they use business as a force for good – engaging in care, advocacy and action for the benefit of people and the planet, not just for profit.

We’ve aspired to be a B Corporation since we first opened in 2009! The B Corp application and certification process was involved and illuminating – it highlighted what we were already doing well, and required us to formally document this through official channels, and it also helped us identify new areas where we can have a positive impact, both within our business and as a business in the community, and to define and set our goals accordingly.

Since we opened our doors, we have worked to implement meaningful initiatives that are a reflection and enactment of our four core values: exceptional quality, transparency, sustainability and community. The B Corp certification cuts through the noise – in our industry and all industries – to let our customers know with certainty and confidence that nothing we say is mere spin, lip service or virtue signalling; that we are actually doing what we say we’re doing, and we stand for what we say we do.  

Market Lane Coffee is so proud to be a certified B Corporation, and to be part of a small group of companies around the world that represent the highest verified standards of social and environmental performance. It’s a single letter, but it’s a really big deal!
