Better Business, Not Perfect Business: Real B Corp Journeys from the Interiors Industry

19 Jan 2026
Retail Revealed LIVE

At a time when sustainability claims are everywhere, the B Corp community is setting a new benchmark for what it means to be a good business. In this honest conversation, three design‑led leaders share what that journey really looks like in practice, the challenges, the surprises, and the mindset shifts along the way.

Stella Gittens (Accouter Group), Rob Abrahams (COAT Paints) and Emer Gillespie (Spark & Bell) will explore how purpose, people and planet come together in their businesses, from supplier relationships and material choices to leadership culture and governance. Expect practical encouragement over perfection, with insights on how to “start where you are,” navigate the changing B Corp standards, and build strong foundations for long‑term impact.

Perfect for furniture and interiors brands curious about sustainability, B Corp certification, or simply doing business better.
