A Certified B Corporation is a type of business that meets high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. These companies are evaluated by the non-profit organization B Lab and must score a minimum number of points on the B Impact Assessment, which measures their impact on workers, customers, community, and the environment. Being a Certified B Corporation distinguishes a business from traditional corporations by prioritizing purpose alongside profit. This certification helps consumers identify companies that are committed to making a positive impact, promoting a more sustainable and equitable economy.
