Swoop is proud to be a B Corp

At Swoop, our journey has always been about more than just travel; it's about making a positive impact on the world we explore and integrating ethical and sustainable practices into our core identity. We wanted to become a B Corp to put those ideas at our heart, and to join a community of businesses that wanted to do the same.

Becoming B Corp certified is hard. Most businesses the size of Swoop don’t achieve certification. But starting the path to certification would mean making a deliberate choice to integrate ethical and sustainable practices into our core identity. It would mean minimising our environmental footprint, actively engaging with local communities and fostering positive impacts in the destinations we visit and love – as well as turning the mirror on ourselves to look at our internal structures.

Swoop began on its path to becoming a B Corp only a few months before we were all knocked off course by the global pandemic. Successfully coming through that unprecedented challenge only stiffened our resolve to create a business that is truly sustainable in every sense of the word.

Going through our accreditation involved putting every corner of the business under a microscope. As part of the process we amended Swoop’s constitution, improved the gender balance in our staff by hiring more senior female managers and published our first Impact Report. We created a full-time sustainability manager position and set up the Swoop Conservation Fund, which disburses 1% of our annual revenue to non-profit organisations working in Antarctica and Patagonia. 

You can see how Swoop’s current B Impact score breaks down on our B Corp home page. Our next assessment is in 2026 and we’re committed to recertifying with an even higher score next time.
