About The Company
Founded in 2000 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Rituals was the first luxury brand to combine home and body products. To date, we've opened 1000 stores in 36 countries and have become a renowned wellbeing destination. Led by our philosophy, The Art of Soulful Living, we're committed to helping consumers on their journey to personal wellbeing, providing tips, inspiration and products to reconnect body, mind and soul. As a certified B Corp™ we believe in sustainable wellbeing, with collections that are good for people and good for the planet. This is supported by our three pillars: Clean, Conscious, and Caring. Clean: 79% of our personal care products contain >90% natural origin ingredients, and by 2023 all formulas will meet this standard. Conscious: we make sustainable choices; every collection has refill options, and we plant, protect, or restore a tree for every refill sold. Caring: we proudly support social initiatives including Tiny Miracles, a pioneering foundation that helps break the poverty cycle by providing life-changing work for underserved communities in Mumbai, India. This philosophy of sustainable wellbeing is embedded into our company culture. Our people are open minded, customer first oriented, and energetic.
