The leading cycle maintenance group has just been certified B Corp. This demanding and internationally recognised label is proof of V\u00e9logik’s CSR commitments. Only 200 companies have been awarded the label in France.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Being a responsible and committed company has always been a matter of course for the V\u00e9logik group. Since its creation in 2008, the leader in cycle maintenance has been asserting its values and thus guiding its social, environmental and economic development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e9logik has written its raison d’\u00eatre into its articles of association, set up concrete initiatives to promote integration through employment, created a training campus, supported women’s cycling, monitored its extra-financial results, etc. There is no shortage of concrete examples of V\u00e9logik’s commitment, and today the group is going one step further by obtaining B Corp certification;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This international label is awarded to companies working towards an inclusive, contributive and regenerative economy. It measures the impact of the business model and operations, covering the spectrum from governance to customer satisfaction, employee development and the involvement of partners and suppliers. By becoming certified, these companies are significantly changing their organisation and production methods in order to control their impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Even though CSR has always been taken into account at V\u00e9logik, the work carried out with B Corp has profoundly changed the company’s vision.It’s a process that will lead us to measure our impact on our customers in concrete terms: bike availability rates, increased cycle life, improved quality for users, etc. This label is also important at industry level. It represents a collective movement towards a sustainable and inclusive economy”, explains Franck Br\u00e9dy, Chairman of the V\u00e9logik group.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
