Green Ibex, a leading environmental consultancy based in Wales, is proud to announce it has achieved B Corp certification, joining a global community of businesses committed to driving positive change for the planet and society.
The B Corp certification, awarded after a rigorous assessment process, is a mark of excellence for businesses that demonstrate a significant positive impact on the environment, communities, customers, and employees. For Green Ibex, this milestone is more than just an accolade – it’s a testament to their commitment to practicing what they preach.
During their 18-month journey, Green Ibex undertook a comprehensive review of its operations, setting ambitious goals and addressing sustainability challenges head-on. From reassessing its carbon footprint to aligning daily practices with the highest environmental and social standards, Green Ibex demonstrated its dedication to embedding sustainability into every facet of the business.
As Jonathan Jones, Founder & CEO of Green Ibex, explains:
“We’ve lived the process, and it’s transformed how we operate and how we advise. This isn’t a case of ‘do as we say, not as we do’. Our B Corp certification isn’t just a badge – it’s proof that we’re all-in, building the future we’re advocating for. We’re proud to lead by example and show what’s possible when sustainability and business work hand in hand.”
Green Ibex specialises in helping businesses reduce carbon emissions, build climate resilience, and tackle sustainability challenges. Through their hands-on experience of achieving B Corp certification, they’ve gained invaluable insights to guide organisations on their own sustainability journeys. Their expertise has already delivered tangible results for clients, such as Lexington Corporate Finance, by providing actionable solutions and showcasing the benefits of embedding sustainability into business strategies.
Warren Lewis, Senior Advisor at financial advisory firm, Lexington, shared his experience:
“After a growing number of Lexington clients were asking for net-zero support and guidance, we realised our own need to measure and reduce our carbon footprint. Partnering with Green Ibex offered us actionable insights into our emissions, empowering us to make meaningful changes. It was a straightforward process and a highly effective way of measuring emissions that provided immense value for money. Within 6 weeks, we knew where we stood and had the data to start making simple but effective changes. Green Ibex really took their time to understand our business and offer solutions fit for the size and stage we’re at.”
The consultancy’s B Corp status further strengthens its role as a trusted partner, showing clients that it doesn’t just offer advice – it actively lives the values it advocates. By blending profitability with purpose, Green Ibex helps businesses achieve measurable, lasting change while building a more resilient future.
With increasing pressure on businesses to address their environmental impact, certifications like B Corp have become a key tool for driving meaningful change. Green Ibex’s achievement sends a clear message: sustainable practices are not only achievable but essential for long-term success.
