The Body Shop International is a global manufacturer and retailer of naturally inspired,
ethically produced beauty and cosmetics products. Founded in the UK in 1976 by Dame
Anita Roddick, we now have over 2,100 stores in 55 countries, with a range of over 1,200 products, all
animal cruelty free, and many with fairly traded natural ingredients.
We were the first international cosmetics brand to be awarded the Humane Cosmetics Standard for our Against Animal Testing policy. And we have our own fair trade programme called Community Trade, making us the only cosmetics company with such an extensive commitment to trading fairly. Community Trade now works with 31 suppliers in 24 countries, providing over 15,000 people across the globe with essential income to build their futures.
