If you didn’t know,  Bentley is a British company and right now they’ve hired local beekeepers to keep up with over 120,000 British Apis Mellifera bees that have been installed on the Bentley site located on the borders of the Cheshire countryside. This environment is just what the bees need to produce close to 15kg of honey.

“Although our Pyms Lane site is over 80 years old, we’re constantly looking for ways to improve our environmental footprint and achieve our goal of carbon neutral operations.” says Peter Bosch, Bentley’s Member of the Board for Manufacturing. “We already have the largest solar car port in the UK on our site – which means that all of our electricity use is now either solar or certified green – so we’ve also started to look at ways we can use our site to increase local biodiversity.”
