What can The Collective do to improve its score?

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

As The Collective already receives a top score in the Ethical Yoghurt sector, The Good Shopping Guide encourages it to get in touch and apply for Ethical Accreditation. After sending in its application, The Collective will be offered the use of The Good Shopping Guide Ethical Mark. The Collective could further improve its score by gaining Organic certification.
