The organisation, which was founded in 1973 by Doug Cleland and Ernie and Olga Orel has grown from a start-up of two, growing to 195 staff with nearly $100 million in annual turnover. 

Finsbury Green has been at the forefront of sustainability, pioneering green practices and advocating for environmental responsibility while delivering superior quality and value to customers. 

Throughout this journey, the company has invested in new technologies and processes, from digital printing to eco-friendly inks and papers, and remained committed to reducing its environmental impact.

Today, Finsbury Green is an industry leader in sustainability, with zero waste sent to landfill, carbon-neutral operations across all its manufacturing sites and highly responsible energy consumption. The company has earned numerous awards and certifications for its environmental initiatives, including ISO standards 9001 for Quality Management and 14001 for Environmental Management and FSC certification.

Owner and Executive Chairman of Finsbury Green Peter Orel shared great pride in the organisation’s history and commitment to innovation and sustainability. 

In recent years, we have invested considerable resources to drive diversity and inclusion – both internally and across our supplier base. Our goal is to deliver greater social impact and empower our customers to do the same”, said Mr Orel.

As part of its 50th-anniversary celebrations, Finsbury Green hosted a series of events and initiatives, including the launch of the new social and environmental ratings for its sourcing marketplace.
