Fiji Water

Is Fiji Water the most ethical and sustainable bottled water? 

Fiji Water is a brand of bottled water that appears in The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Bottled Water Ratings Table. Although Fiji Water has not yet met our ethical benchmark, we hope to see the brand make progress in the future. There are numerous criteria a brand must meet in order to be given Ethical Accreditation by us, and in some of those areas, Fiji Water is meeting expectations. In others, there is still much progress to be made.
