About:
Wolf & Badger is the destination to discover independent ethical brands worldwide. Now supporting more than 1,000 independent designers, we provide a platform which takes the effort out of finding and sourcing sustainably and ethically produced jewellery, fashion, accessories, homeware and beauty, without compromising on quality and design. Think limited-edition runs, with products made to last.
We want to create a forward thinking global community built upon the age-old pillars of skill, craftsmanship and quality. In the ten years since we began, consumers have become increasingly aware of the need for sustainable and ethical retail practice. We are on a mission to ensure that the future of retail is a responsible one, where independent designers are incentivised to manufacture and source sustainably and ethically and that we, as a retailer, uphold these values. #supportsmallbusiness
Also, we are very grateful that we can safely look after our entire team whilst continuing to support independent brands through our online marketplace without interruption to our service. We’re one of the more fortunate businesses that don’t rely on the use of warehouses or distribution centres, with designers sending orders out directly from their individual studios and workshops. Thanks to our delivery partner DHL, we're also able to offer no-contact deliveries with the utmost safety. We continue to ensure all our designers are adhering to best-practice guidance and following government directions; ensuring the safety and wellness of our community is ultimately top of mind at this time.
