The iconic British cosmetics retailer, The Body Shop, known for its commitment to ethical beauty and environmental sustainability, has entered into administration. Founded in 1976 by the late Dame Anita Roddick from a single shop in Brighton, the brand has grown into a global presence, advocating against animal testing and championing natural ingredients.
This move into administration marks a significant moment in the company’s history, which spans nearly half a century of retail innovation and social activism.
