Let’s talk about impact! As a B Corp (and the first pet food company anywhere in the world to become a B Corp!) we use our business as a force for good. That means we measure our impact on the world around us, our team, and our customers. We’re in a recertification year, which means that we’re being reassessed on how we deliver on our B Corp commitments. We’ve got everything crossed that we will improve on our existing score of 92.3! A key tool to help us stay on track is our Impact Report, or as we like to call it, our Paw Print for Progress. Each year we review everything we’ve done, where we’ve hit our targets and where we’ve got room for improvement – all of this, and more, goes into the report. This year’s report has a whole new structure and considers everything we’ve done in three sections: Beyond Business as Usual, Sourcing with Care and Reducing Our Pawprint. This reflects some significant projects we’ve established on the way to the next step in our sustainability journey. We’re really proud, and as we wait to find out the results of our latest recertification, we hope you’ll enjoy it - click this link to read: https://lnkd.in/eWdvcb2N #bcorp #businessasforceforgood #impactreport

Changing whole industries, bringing new ways of running businesses, its process and its people: Businesses are the frontrunners of the regenerative economy! At the upcoming #BFGLWinterGathering, leaders come together to create impact! Powerful examples from our #BforGoodSummit of collaboration driving meaningful change: Albert Heijn   True Price It began with a phone call between Michel Scholte, co-founder of the True Price Initiative & Marit van Egmond, CEO of Albert Heijn - the largest retailer in The Netherlands. Their conversation centered around making the environmental and social costs of products transparent, allowing customers to choose if they want to offset them. All extra revenue generated by the experiment will be invested in Rainforest Alliance projects. Marit van Egmond is one of the leaders at the Winter Gathering to activate and synergize and together we are building the regenerative economy. #BFGLcooperative #regenerativeeconomy #collectiveaction #radicalinterdependence
