WHAT WE DO
Kans and Kandy Group, founded in 2000, operates three distinct divisions, each with a set of values steeped in the mission of our B Corp Certification.
We are leaders in the health & beauty discount and residual stock sector through our core operating business Kans and Kandy Wholesale. We are a trusted supply chain partner to the world’s largest FMCG brands, working ethically and responsibly to provide sustainable solutions for obsolete stock.
Our established property division, Kans and Kandy Property, owns a diverse portfolio of land and properties that underpins the strength of the Group balance sheet. We are particularly proud of our focus on working with tenants who are leading the way in eco and environmental projects, including the creation of sustainable energy and high-volume plastic recycling.
Our own personal values and beliefs drive the work of the Kans and Kandy Charitable Trust. Every year, 10% of the net profits from our trading business are donated to the Trust to help projects both in our local communities and across the world. From education to healthcare, we focus on causes that align with our values and make a lasting impact.
As a group, we’re committed to continuous improvement in governance, sustainability, and social responsibility. Our zero-waste targets are not just goals—they’re a guiding principle in how we operate, grow, and lead.
