About the Company
- Lush Cosmetics North America respectfully recognizes that our business operates on Indigenous territory across Turtle Island.
- As a business headquartered in Canada, our largest facilities are located on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh, as well as here on the lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit, Anishnabeg, Chippewa, Haudenosaunee and Wendat, and now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
- Our commitment to reconciliation and decolonization is guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action #92.
- We recognize that our facilities, along with our settler and newcomer staff are guests on this land and as we act to repair past harm, we do it together in allyship with Indigenous People everywhere, including staff, customers and with leadership from organizations and communities we work with.
