Daewoo

How ethical is Daewoo?

Daewoo Electronics is a South Korean appliance brand which was originally founded in 1967 by Kim Woo-choong. This is just one of the corporations to operate under the umbrella of the Daewoo Group.

Daewoo has achieved an acceptable score on The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Kitchen Appliances Ratings Table but Ethical Accreditation has not yet been achieved. This is important because it provides additional warranty on the company’s wider ethical, sustainable, and social policies and records.

Read more about the issues facing the Ethical Kitchen Appliances sector and find out which companies have achieved accreditation for their commitment to being ethical and sustainable.

 

In which areas does Daewoo perform well?

Daewoo performs well for most of our criteria, with the exception of its Environmental Report and Code of Conduct.

The above benchmark score that Daewoo is awarded on The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Kitchen Appliances Ratings Table is the result of an evaluation of multiple ethical criteria.

 

What can Daewoo do to improve its ethical score?

Daewoo is encouraged to apply for Ethical Accreditation. If successful in its application, Daewoo would join the certified ethical brands leading the way in progressive and sustainable practices and be permitted to display The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Mark in its communications.

To further increase its score, Daewoo could publish both an Environmental Report and a Code of Conduct, as it is currently given a bottom rating for these criteria.
