Hooray, We're A Certified B Corp™

Maud Borup is proud to announce recog­ni­tion as a Cer­ti­fied B Cor­po­ra­tion™ (B Corp™), join­ing an exclu­sive group of about 5,000 com­pa­nies world­wide hold­ing such a distinction. 

This notable hon­or is award­ed to com­pa­nies that com­plete a com­pre­hen­sive assess­ment of their impact on all stake­hold­ers and pass ver­i­fi­ca­tion audits that exam­ine how the com­pa­ny meets gov­er­nance, envi­ron­ment, work­ers, cus­tomers, and com­mu­ni­ty requirements.

B Cor­po­ra­tions are part of a glob­al move­ment to ini­ti­ate change in the way com­pa­nies oper­ate. Cer­ti­fi­ca­tion rec­og­nizes busi­ness­es that bal­ance peo­ple and pur­pose with profits.

“Maud Borup has always been a com­pa­ny with a con­science. Being cer­ti­fied as a B Corp reaf­firms our com­mit­ment to meet­ing the high­est social and envi­ron­men­tal stan­dards with the utmost trans­paren­cy and account­abil­i­ty,” said Chris­tine Lan­ti­nen, pres­i­dent of Maud Borup. 

Maud Borup met the rig­or­ous stan­dards defined by B Corp, with only 22 com­pa­nies in Min­neso­ta achiev­ing accreditation.

Lan­ti­nen adds, ​“Our busi­ness prac­tices are built to respect the earth and cel­e­brate diver­si­ty as we con­tin­ue to build a more inclu­sive environment.”

The com­pa­ny joins oth­er cer­ti­fied B Corp com­pa­nies like Patag­o­nia, Toms, and Ben & Jerry’s, all work­ing toward one uni­fy­ing goal – make busi­ness a force for good.
