CSR: Reasons Your Business Should Sponsor/Buy a Beehive

In recent times, we have seen more and more businesses sponsoring beehives, dedicating their CSR budgets and efforts to the most important animals in our ecosystem; honeybees!

Here at Bee1, we are understandably thrilled by this, having been arranging and fulfilling beehive sponsorships for companies not only in Wales, but across the UK, for many years.  

Below, we look at some of the many reasons businesses should adopt beehives.

Enhance your brand image

If you are thinking of ways to enhance your brand image and show your customers that you are aware of social and environmental issues, sponsoring a beehive is a great route to go down. It’s a pretty unique way of doing your but for the environment!

Your own company honey….yum!

If you do decide to invest in a beehive that your company owns, you will not only boast your own beautiful bees but your own beautiful honey too!  Company honey makes for great corporate gifts for key business partners as well as staff members and perspective clients. 

Beekeeping and mental health 

When boasting your own business beehive, you inevitably take on the beekeeping duties that go with the ownership. Long has beekeeping been associated with its positions impacts on mental health. This means by purchasing a beehive you will not only be helping the environment but your staff wellbeing! 

Donate a beehive to a local school

If you follow us on social media, you will be well aware of the work we do with schools, with our schools programme teaching the wonderful minds of tomorrow about the importance of bees to the world. Through hands-on workshops and a whole plethora of fun outdoor activities, we get children excited about bees! In recent months, we have  seen a rise in the number of corporate partners coming in board and donating a beehive to a local school/schools. This is both a great way to get enhance a business’ CSR policy and invest in local education.
