Sustainable, eco-friendly and ethical e-commerce brands that are killing it

Conscious consumerism isn't new. I'm sure you've seen the data around consumers seeking sustainable and ethical products from brands that put purpose and planet on par with, if not above, profit backed with stats like; "73% of global consumers are willing to pay more for products that come from sustainable brands" from industry leaders like Nielsen and "More than Half of Consumers Would Pay More for Sustainable Products Designed to Be Reused or Recycled" from Accenture.
When talking with our clients, we refer to selling via Shopify directly to customers as "DTCC" (direct to conscious consumer) to reinforce the principles that should be adopted in order to connect with today's consumer - principles that are at the core of our Conscious Developmentโข framework - because ultimately, it's the consumer that will play the pivotal role in fostering positive change in the industry.
To make the right choices for our planet, it's crucial to look beyond the surface as a consumer and offer total transparency as a DTCC brand. Transparency around supply chains, sourcing, production processes and environmental impact certifications should all be just as accessible as the products being sold.
So, who are the brands that are doing this really well?
