The Body Shop
OnLine Case 5.1 The Body Shop The Body Shop, which sources and retails (directly and through franchises) naturally inspired lotions and cosmetics, has been a highly successful business with a price to earnings ratio which stayed well above the retail sector average throughout the 1980s, before declining as a result of expansion and increased competition. Until 1999, The Body Shop also manufactured at least half of the products it sold. The Body Shop was started in England in 1976 by Anita Roddick and her husband Gordon, as a means of supporting Anita and their two daughters while Gordon went to fulfill a dream, riding horseback across the Americas. Gordon helped Anita get a bank loan of £4000 to open the first shop – a family friend, Ian McGlinn also chipped in £4000 - and shortly afterwards, while Gordon was away, the first franchise was agreed. Stores have subsequently been opened in over 50 countries – there are now over 2000 stores – and The Body Shop was floated on the UK Stock Exchange in 1984. Well renowned for its environmental and ethical stance and strategies, The Body Shop has made an impact around the world. ‘If you think you are too small to have an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito’ (Anita Roddick). Anita’s motivation for starting the business she did was always influenced by her personal commitment to education and to the environment and social change. Through The Body Shop, her talent for entrepreneurism was channelled into a cause. It has, though, always been an interesting question as to whether Body Shop was started as a retail business with particular values or as a means of pursuing an ethical crusade.

Livers of Sharks, Especially Deepwater Shark Species Which Are Especially Vulnerable Theto Overfishing and Often Endangered
AN EXCLUSIVE STUDY BY BLOOM March 2015 Shark in our beauty BEAST creams and the Beauty Shark in our beauty BEAST creams Some cosmetic brands still use a substance derived from the liver of sharks in the blends of moisturizing creams. In 2012,and BLOOM carried out a worldwide study on the use of shark squalane, a substance extracted from the livers of sharks, especially deepwater shark species which are especially vulnerable theto overfishing and often endangered. The study revealed that the cosmetics sector was the main consumer of animal squalane, even though plant substitutes derived from sugar cane or olive were available. The report pointed to the urgency for corporations to take their environmental responsibility seriously and to modify their supply chain in order to exclusively use plant squalane. Two years later, in 2014, BLOOM proceeded to carry out the largest test ever made on commercial creams to identify the presence of shark squalane in them. In total, BLOOM tested 72 moisturizing creams whose list of ingredients mentioned “squalane”. Labels did not specify whether the squalane was animal-based (shark) or plant-based (olive or sugarcane). Ten creams out of 72 did not contain a sufficient volume of squalane altogether to identify its origin, but results were robust for 62 of the products tested. As a conclusion, one moisturizing cream out of five contains shark squalane. It appearsBeauty that a high proportion of Asian brands still use shark squalane while Western brands, although still massively concerned by this issue in 2012, have globally shifted away from using shark substances.

Anita Roddick Founder of the Body Shop by Krista Mcluskey
PSSA ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS PASSAGE 3 Read the following passage about Anita Roddick. Then answer questions 20–29. Anita Roddick Founder of The Body Shop by Krista McLuskey Early Years Anita was born in Littlehampton, England, where her parents owned the Clifton Café. Anita’s father, Henry, turned the Clifton Café into an American-style diner like the ones he had seen while living in the United States. It was complete with pinball machines, a jukebox, and Coca-Cola, which was not well known in England at that time. Suddenly, the café became very popular. Anita realized that the atmosphere in a business can make it successful. When Anita was about ten years old, her mother took over the café. All the children were expected to work there after school and on weekends to help support the family. Meanwhile, Anita was completing her education. After finishing secondary school, she attended a teacher training college in the city of Bath. Developing Skills After graduating, Anita decided she wanted some adventure in her life. She traveled to Tahiti, New Hebrides, Australia, Madagascar, New Caledonia, and South Africa. In these places, Anita watched the local women use natural products to clean their skin and hair. She tried them and found they worked better than the products she used back in England. After Anita returned to England, she met and married Gordon Roddick, with whom she had two daughters. Anita and Gordon worked hard running a hotel and restaurant. One day, Gordon announced that he wanted to take two years off to ride on horseback from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to New York City.

“Business As Unusual ”: a Case Study on the Body Shop
Teaching Case ______________________________ Journal of Applied Case Research Sponsored by the Southwest Case Research Association “BUSINESS AS UNUSUAL”: A CASE STUDY ON THE BODY SHOP Subhadip Roy ICFAI University, India Lopamudra Ghosh ICFAI University, India © Journal of Applied Case Research Accepted: September 2008 2 “BUSINESS AS UNUSUAL1”: A CASE STUDY ON THE BODY SHOP “The business has existed for one reason only – to allow us to use our success to act as a force of change, to continue the education and consciousness-raising of our staff, to assist development in the Third World and above all, to help protect the environment. What we are trying to do is to create a new business paradigm, simply showing that business can have a human face and a social conscience”. - Anita Roddick (1991)2 ANITA RODDICK STEPPED DOWN AS THE BODY SHOP CHAIRPERSON February 2002, the founder of one of the biggest cosmetics companies in the world, Anita Roddick (Anita) stepped down as the chairperson of the Body Shop along with husband Gordon Roddick (Gordon), who was a co-chair along with her. A number of controversies in the mid and end 1990’s had badly affected the company’s image as doing “business with a human face” as opined by Anita in the quote given above. Periods of losses, coupled with poorly motivated shareholders, de-motivated franchisees, unsuccessful restructuring attempts and public propaganda against the company was proving to be too strong for the company to cope up. Thus, the decision of Anita and Gordon came up after several unsuccessful attempts to find a buyer for the firm.
