Wunda is a way off from our Ethical Benchmark, and so has some big business practices to change before it could be considered for our Ethical Accreditation, but we encourage all brands to strive to protect the Environment, People, and Animals, even as they also strive to make a profit and succeed in the markets.

What is Wunda and what does it do?

Wunda launched first in France, the Netherlands, and Portugal. In addition to the original pea-based recipe, the Wunda range includes unsweetened and chocolate versions.

Where does Wunda score well as a brand ethically?

Wunda does not rank among the top brands in the majority of our evaluation categories, but the brand does perform well in areas including providing and publishing an Environmental Report, Sustainable Energy, and lack of evidence that this brand profits from Armaments.

How can Wunda improve its Ethical Rating?

The Good Shopping Guide employs a range of assessment criteria to determine whether a brand is ethical and eligible for Ethical Accreditation. Wunda’s scores are calculated using these criteria for all its surveyed categories. To continue developing its Ethical Rating, the company can apply for Ethical Accreditation. Furthermore, by following in the footsteps of stronger brands, the brand could perform better in the Genetic Modification and Animal Welfare brackets among others.
