We are absolutely delighted to announce that we have successfully renewed its B Corp certification. This is a significant achievement that highlights the firm’s continued commitment to meeting some of the most demanding standards in business.
Today, only 22 businesses in Suffolk hold B Corp certification, all sharing the commitment to balance purpose with profit. By renewing its status, Kingsfleet remains part of this select group, recognised for using business as a force for good. The achievement reflects ongoing efforts to reduce environmental impact, support the wellbeing and development of its team, and play an active role in the local community.
B Corp certification is widely recognised as a rigorous benchmark for ethical and sustainable business practices. To achieve it, companies must undergo a detailed assessment of their impact across governance, workers, community, customers and the environment. The process is repeated every three years, with renewal requiring evidence of ongoing improvement – meaning maintaining the status is often seen as just as challenging as gaining it in the first place.
Colin Low said:
“Becoming a B Corp is hard – staying a B Corp is even harder. The standards are high, and rightly so. We welcome that challenge because it keeps us accountable to our clients, our team and our community. Our recertification shows that we’re not just resting on past achievements – we’re continuing to push ourselves to do business in a way that truly balances people, planet and profit.”
Kingsfleet first achieved B Corp status in2022, joining a small number of UK financial planning firms to be certified. The recertification reflects the firm’s continued efforts to improve its environmental footprint, invest in employee wellbeing, and actively contribute to the community it serves.
The B Corp movement now includes over 8,000 certified companies worldwide, all united by the goal of using business as a force for good.
