Latest News from Plamil
Plamil have been rated as producing the most ethical chocolate, in Ethical Consumer magazine’s 2009 brand comparison. The study compared over 25 major brands on a range of issues from environmental, worker rights, supply chain, animal rights to sustainability.
Plamil’s Director Adrian Ling stated, “We’re delighted that Plamil have been rated highest. This company has always had more goals than just profit, and its great to be recognised for the social aspects we contribute towards. It may be a little odd to say, but its not that hard to ensure that every aspect of our business is as ethical as possible.
“We consider not only on the ‘headline’ ethical points such as ingredient sourcing, environmental issues or other typical company policies, but like all businesses it’s about choices. At Plamil we like to make what we consider the right choice, which is quite often very easy. Fortunately our customers are increasingly appreciating this with ever increasing sales!"
Invisible In Forest Hill - Georgina Palmer from Forest Hill joins a growing band of publishers targetting ethical consumers. Other magazines such as Lifescape and Off the Hoof have found the present climate of tightening advertising belts tough. Whilst off the hoof takes a hard core vegan line Lifescape took a low key fashion approach to ethcal publishing. Georgina's magazine is more like sugar or shout with a proven formula of celebrity interviews, true life interviews and shopping tips. With some hard hitting stories about bullying and animal cruelty that she hopes will capture the hearts of youngsters in Forest Hill Georgina is hoping her magazine Invisible will prove popular.
