SYDNEY - AussieJournal -- Sydney, 20 May 2024

Celebrating environmental progress, the Sustainability Award launches on World Environment Day (June 5) to award the most impactful eco-businesses globally.

This prestigious program highlights industry leaders of all sizes including Lush and UpCircle, fostering trust and awareness for environmentally-conscious consumers.

Small Sustainable Businesses Face Challenges:

Rising costs and fierce competition threaten many small eco-conscious businesses. The Sustainability Award team discovered numerous closures during their pre-launch phase, with popular green brands like Sol Cups and Arnsdorf shutting down in the last 12 months.

Recognising the economic struggles hindering many small sustainable brands, the Australian-based SustainabilityAward.Org has special rates for small businesses.
