New Delhi: As The Body Shop celebrates 19 years in India, it reinforces its commitment to putting more love for the people, the planet, and communities at the centre of its operations. Since 2006, the iconic British-born ethical beauty brand has championed purpose-led actionism, cleaner beauty, and social inclusion, proving that ethical beauty can change lives, not just routines. This year, The Body Shop championed several initiatives, creating a positive social and environmental impact, including donating 19 electric-tricycles to waste collectors in the effort to transform lives for better through mobility, dignity, and opportunity.
As part of its flagship Festive’24 campaign, Spark A Change 2.0 – The Body Shop, in partnership with Plastics For Change (PFC), continues to drive meaningful impact through its bold actionism agenda. Marking five years of collaboration, this initiative has already diverted 2,330+ metric tons of plastic waste, prevented over 4.4 million kg of CO₂ emissions, and empowered 2,000+ waste collectors with dignified livelihoods.
The donation drive, backed by customer contributions across India, concluded on 31st March 2025. The funds raised is equivalent to 19 electric tricycles—game-changing vehicles that help waste collectors cover longer routes, transport heavier loads, and significantly increase their monthly income.
