Halen Môn, the Anglesey sea salt company, has been named one of eight winners of the Sky Zero Footprint Fund: Local Heroes initiative.
The business will receive a £20,000 TV advertising campaign to amplify its positive environmental impact.
The Sky Zero Footprint Fund: Local Heroes empowers small businesses making a difference in their communities by supporting their sustainability missions. Halen Môn’s commitment to clean seas, minimal waste and B Corp certification stood out, as did its innovative approach, which includes reusing distilled water from its sea salt production to create seaweed barrels, helping reduce carbon emissions and waste.
Through AdSmart from Sky, a targeted TV platform, Halen Môn will reach highly targeted local audiences across a range of Sky’s channels, helping to promote its sustainably sourced sea salt and highlight its environmental initiatives.
Jess Lea-Wilson, Brand Director at Halen Môn, said:
“We are absolutely delighted to have won the Sky Zero Footprint Fund: Local Heroes award. It's amazing recognition of our small but brilliant team and our commitment to sustainability.”
David Sanderson, Director of AdSmart Local and Development at Sky Media, added:
