The document discusses The Body Shop's approach to corporate social responsibility under founder Dame Anita Roddick and after its acquisition by L'Oreal. It considers whether The Body Shop was genuinely socially responsible or guilty of "greenwashing". While some critics argue L'Oreal bought The Body Shop to gain credibility for its CSR efforts, the document suggests The Body Shop maintained its values after the sale and both companies benefited from their partnership through increased market reach and sustainability efforts.
