What can VFC do to improve its score?

The above benchmark score that VFC is awarded on The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Vegan & Vegetarian Foods Ratings Table is the result of an evaluation of multiple ethical criteria. As VFC already receives a top score in the Ethical Vegan & Vegetarian Foods sector, we encourage it to get in touch and apply for Ethical Accreditation, after which it will be offered the use of The Good Shopping Guide Ethical Mark.

However we would also encourage VFC to gain organic certification in order to improve its score. If it applies for Ethical Accreditation, The Good Shopping Guide would be able to offer some guidance on this.

Were you aware that your brand could benefit from Ethical Accreditation?
