Meet JBC ❤️
- Sector: Fashion
- Number of employees: 1,000+
- Locations: Head office Houthalen-Helchteren, satellite office Vilvoorde
- Mission: Happy fashion, happy people, happy planet.
JBC, a Belgian family business within the Claeys Retail Group, combines sustainable fashion with a strong focus on the well-being of their employees. In June 2021, they replaced their traditional soda machines with Dripl Refill Points, setting a healthy and sustainable standard in the office.
Challenge: Healthy choices in a demanding industry
According to Katrien Vangrunderbeek, Happiness Officer at JBC, the fashion industry brings challenges:
"The workload is incredibly high, and we therefore want to give our employees the tools to deal with it better. Health and sustainability play a central role in this."
JBC wanted a refillable solution with a focus on:
- Sustainability: drastically reduce waste and sugar consumption.
- Health: Providing employees with responsible beverages.
- Inclusiveness: offering solutions that suit everyone.
The solution: Dripl Refill Points
JBC chose two Dripl Refill Points to complement their wellness program MindFuel, which focuses on movement, balance, relaxation and connection. You can read more about that here.
Pre-onboarding: a fresh start
Implementation began with a creative communication strategy, including:
- Personal emails: Employees received an invitation to the launch, complete with an explanation of Dripl.
- Visual Activation: Posters in prominent places in the offices.
- Taste tests: Colleagues were able to vote on their favorite flavors, which made for an inclusive and enthusiastic atmosphere.
Launch Day: Cheers to sustainability
- Tastings: All flavors could be tested extensively.
- Team events: The Refill Point became a focal point during after-work drinks.
