StepZero.eco
Sustainability Evidence Report
Acme Coffee Ltd • March 2026
Not at all. StepZero.eco is designed for organisation leaders with no sustainability background. Everything is explained in plain English with practical, actionable steps.
Any UK small or medium organisation, from cafes and retailers to manufacturers, consultancies, and charities. We cover 13 organisation types.
The 750+ actions were developed with practising sustainability consultants who work with UK SMEs every day.
No. StepZero.eco is not affiliated with any certification body. What it does is help you take practical sustainability actions and log them as evidence. If you later decide to pursue B Corp, PlanetMark, ISO 14001, or EcoVadis, much of the groundwork will already be in place.
Once signed up, you can ask sustainability questions, share wins, refer other organisations, and suggest new actions for the library.
