We believe in health for our communities: our community of customers, the local neighbourhoods surrounding our stores, the teams who work in our stores and the people behind the products that sit on our shelves. A healthy planet is just as high up on our priorities list.
To us, health means providing organic, natural and sustainable products that you can trust, advice and guidance from trained experts, and acting sustainably and ethically as a business.

Our mission
At Planet Organic, we strive to be more than just a shop. We want to do more for our customers, neighbourhoods, employees, suppliers and the planet than simply buying and selling products. We believe in promoting health in our communities through organic, natural and sustainable products, and acting sustainably and ethically as a business.
We care deeply about the communities we are a part of. Our goal is to promote health within our communities and to be ethical in our treatment of both people and the planet. Being part of a community also means being part of conversations, listening and using the views of those we serve to improve what we do.
Healthy planet
Organic
So why organic and natural? Put simply, we believe organic is the most sustainable way to farm and we believe organic, natural food and products are the best for our health.
When we opened in 1995, we were the first shop to be certified by the Soil Association and we continue to work closely with them to certify that our fresh produce, our Planet Organic brand products, all of the food cooked in our kitchens, our juices, smoothies and coffees made in store are organic and natural. The Soil Association also helped us develop the training our new starters complete when they join the business.
Organic agriculture boils down to respecting our soil – the resource we cannot feed ourselves without. The goal of organic agriculture is not to produce more. The goal is to improve soil health, produce more nutritious food, increase biodiversity, protect wildlife and steer clear of the harmful pesticides that undermine these goals.
Sustainable
We recognise that there’s always work to do on the journey to becoming more sustainable and are constantly looking for more innovative, greener ways to do things. We’ve made some significant changes over the years too, which we’re proud of.
We became the first zero edible food waste business in 2018 by redistributing leftover food to the community through Olio and Too Good To Go. Any food waste that’s inedible is composted and used by regenerative agriculture farms around London.
Packaging and waste is an area we continue to innovate in. All of our takeaway food containers, juice and coffee cups are compostable, and we have specific bins in store in which to dispose of these. In 2019, we re-launched our range of store cupboard essentials in home compostable packaging in all our stores. When listing new products, our buyers press suppliers on packaging, always encouraging more sustainable options.
Our online orders are delivered across the UK in cardboard boxes made from 75% recycled fibres and padded out with recycled scrunched paper and compostable air pockets. Chilled products are kept cool with biodegradable plant gel ice packs.
