Introduction


This B Corp Month, we invite you on a journey of discovery through Cornwall, a place not just known for its stunning landscapes but as a cradle for a remarkable movement, as well as to celebrate other B Corps outside of Cornwall who we also work with.


Here in Cornwall, businesses like Bull & Wolf, Cornish Gems, Origin Coffee and A Side Studio are not just operating; they're redefining the essence of sustainable and ethical business practices. Let's peel back the layers and uncover the inspiring stories of change and innovation within Cornwall's B Corp community.

Cornish Gems

Crafting Places of Nature and Nurture


Imagine holiday homes that do more than just offer a retreat; they immerse you in a world where every detail is infused with care for the environment and local culture.


Cornish Gems has been pioneering this vision for over 17 years, offering a glimpse into what the future of hospitality can look like. Each property in their diverse portfolio is a testament to the power of thoughtful tourism, one that enriches both the visitor and the visited.


A Blueprint for Regenerative Tourism

Dive deeper into Cornish Gems' ethos, and you'll find a proactive approach to minimising tourism's footprint, from carefully managing their property locations to funding climate-positive projects. It's an invitation to explore how we can all travel more thoughtfully, leaving places better than we found them.



Cornish Gems has committed to becoming a regenerative business, and working towards its net zero goals. So far, they have limited their portfolio in hotspot areas, whilst collaborating with like-minded businesses to minimise the impact of the tourism industry on our Cornish communities.

Framing the Future

Their work exemplifies how the creative industry in Cornwall is not just about art for art's sake but about art as a catalyst for change, driving forward the conversation on what it means to be a responsible business in today's world.







Bridging Narratives: From Hospitality to Storytelling


The commitment to sustainability in Cornwall seamlessly weaves through various sectors, connecting seemingly disparate industries through a shared vision. This is where Bull & Wolf Film Co. enters the scene, turning the lens towards stories that matter, stories that resonate with the heartbeat of sustainability and social responsibility.

Our collaboration on the retail drinking chocolate boxes is a testament to what happens when two B Corps unite with a common goal: to revolutionise packaging for the better, proving that sustainability can be seamlessly integrated into even the most everyday products.
