No two businesses affect the world in the same way. What a brand makes, how it is made, where it is sold and how it reaches you all change where its real impact sits. For a fashion label, most of it is in the fabric and the factories. For a brewery, it is water and energy.
So we start there. We build a picture of how this business actually operates, work out which sustainability issues genuinely matter for a business like it, and weight each one by how much it counts.
Then we check what the brand itself has published, issue by issue. The figure is the share of those weighted priorities it has addressed in public.
Only a brand’s own words count, so every brand is held to the same test. Where an issue shows as not found, it means we could not find it published. It does not mean the brand is not doing the work.
Our technology uses proprietary intelligence and AI to identify which impact areas are a priority for this business type, and how many have been addressed publicly. Not yet brand verified, there may be errors. Provide feedback

Positive Sentiment and Common Criticisms Found
Positive Sentiment Found: Peppermayo is praised by fashion-forward consumers for its trendy, feminine aesthetic and curated edit of occasion and vacation wear — earning a 3.8 overall rating across 249 reviews on WorthEPenny and generating strong influencer and TikTok engagement for specific standout pieces; the brand's stated sustainability framework across five pillars (Ethical Trade, Sustainable Products, Zero Waste Packaging, Carbon Positive, and Community) and its claim that 70%+ of products are in-house Peppermayo Exclusives — enabling closer monitoring of production conditions — are cited on its sustainability profile as meaningful structural commitments relative to comparable Australian e-retailers.
