Jennings becomes certified B Corp
B4 members Jennings are thrilled to announce that they are now a certified B Corp!
Jennings own and manage south Oxfordshire based Monument Business Park in Chalgrove, home to around 80 small businesses with over 500 people working on the site. They are the first business park managers in the world to achieve this milestone after a long and rigorous assessment process. While it’s certainly a landmark in the company’s journey, it’s something they really wanted to achieve to encourage others in their network to use business as a force for good. Already some of the Park’s tenants in the ‘Jennings family’ are showing interest and asking how the process could work for them. Chris Williams of Jennings says, “ For us it’s all about the people. We’re a people-powered business and we just want to thank everyone who’s helped us reach B Corp certification. It’s a massive Thank You to all of you!”
