The Mark of Family Business
We are encouraging all family businesses to subscribe to the relevant Family Business Badge to proudly promote that they are a family business and proud of their roots. Research confirms that consumers place more trust in family owned businesses (Source: Edelman Trust Barometer) and the products and services they provide.
Our members gain use of the emblem as part of their membership which enables them to use the emblem on websites, letterheads, signs and other assets. Sign up to become a member today or if you would rather simply licence the badge for a year you can do so below.
Family businesses displaying the badge demonstrate the underlying essence of being a family business, notably that they are:
-
Proud of being a family business
-
Committed to doing business the right way
-
Invested in creating a sustainable firm for future generations
-
Committed to taking a long term view
-
Proud in having a heritage but recognising the need to remain relevant
-
Proud to celebrate the very essence of being a British family business
The badge has been created and endorsed by Family Business United, the globally recognised champion of family firms, and seeks to bring the family business community together to celebrate the important role it has today, and will do going forward.
As Paul Andrews, Founder and CEO of Family Business United adds, “We wanted to create something iconic, that reflects the importance of the sector, draws from the past in terms of the roots of where family firms were founded and from where they have grown to become great family firms of today with their focus firmly on tomorrow."
"We hope that the badge will encourage family firms to embrace their ownership, the very nature of who they are and what differentiates them, and provide a means by which we can celebrate their importance. We are delighted to have created a badge that celebrates the sector and that will hopefully make an even greater difference too.”
