Lakrids by Bülow, a Copenhagen-based confectionery producer, has earned B Corp certification, validating its commitment to social and environmental responsibility across operations. The company, which manufactures gourmet liquorice products at its factory outside Copenhagen, pioneered the use of 100% recycled plastic jars in the confectionery industry in 2019. It now operates nearly 2,000 retail points across 35 countries, including Denmark, Germany, the UK, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Austria, and the United Arab Emirates. B Corp certification requires companies to meet rigorous standards on governance, workers, customers, community, and environmental performance. The designation signals Lakrids by Bülow's alignment with third-party accountability measures increasingly valued by operators and consumers seeking suppliers with verified sustainability credentials.
