Our Ethical Approach

We are recognised as an ethical brand by Good On You.

Good On You is a leading source for ethical brand ratings, assessing brands for their impact on the environment, labour and animals.

At Offbeat Sweetie, we believe that we should all do what we can to leave the world better than how we found it, and these values guide the decisions we make and the way we run our business. As a small family business, our resources and choices might be limited compared to bigger businesses, but we believe that all businesses, big and small, have a responsibility to run their business in the most ethical manner possible. 

Here is our ethical approach:

🌈 As part of our commitment to sustainability, we minimise textile waste by making our products on demand instead of following the traditional retail model of mass-producing products. By only producing our items after they have been purchased, we avoid the common retail problem of unsold items ending up in landfill.
🌈 We are an LGBTIQ+ friendly business. We promote equality by not adhering to gender stereotypes with our colours and designs, and make them available across our entire size range. Our products are intended to be worn by anybody who likes them!
🌈 While many of our products are made in China, we challenge the "Made In China" stigma by working with experts who produce beautifully crafted products using ethical practices. The owner of the company that makes most of our products spent over a year in China, working closely with the factories to ensure that everything produced is high quality and that everything within the factories is above board. We will never work with anyone who is known to use child labour, sweatshops or other exploitative practices that are in breach of the Labour Law of the People's Republic of China.
