Green Moves was proud to become a Certified B Corporation in December 2015.
We hear lots of businesses and people talking the talk, but do they really walk the talk when it comes to being sustainable? In a world that highly values independent validation, we decided to join a rapidly growing group of businesses who really do ‘do what they say they do’.
The B Corporations is a network that uses the power of business to solve social and environmental problems. We are part of a leading global movement to redefine success in business. By voluntarily meeting higher standards of transparency, accountability, and performance, Certified B Corps are distinguishing themselves in a cluttered marketplace by offering a positive vision of a better way to do business.
To become certified we…
1) Met the Performance Requirement: Complete the B Impact Assessment and earn a reviewed minimum score of 80 out of 200 points.
2) Met the Legal Requirement: Adopt the B Corporation Legal Framework to bake the mission of the company into its legal DNA. This allows the company’s values to thrive under new management, new investors, and new ownership.
3) Made it Official: Sign a Term sheet and Declaration of Interdependence to make the certification official.
To find out more, see our Green Moves B Corp page and the B Corp website.
We hope to encourage many more to join in on using business as a force for good.
