SO GOOD SO YOU IS PROUD TO BE A CERTIFIED B CORPORATION

So Good So You Joins Small but Mighty Group of Corporations Leading the Way for a Better Tomorrow

MINNEAPOLIS, March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, So Good So You is proud to announce it is officially a B Corporation. B Corp certification is a private certification earned by for-profit companies that measures an organization's entire social and environmental impact. The rigorous certification process verifies that businesses are meeting high standards for performance, accountability, and transparency and is meant to guide companies to conduct business in more inclusive, equitable and sustainable ways, factors which founders Rita Katona and Eric Hall have always held as the ultimate drivers of success.

"When my husband, Eric, and I founded So Good So You, we knew we would define success a little differently than most. We wanted our business to be a force of good in the world, and deliver beneficial outcomes for employees, communities and the planet.

And over the years, we've worked tirelessly to check all the boxes. From actively recruiting and promoting a diverse workforce, making sure that compensation includes thriving wages and human-centered benefits, tracking down renewable energy options, and increasingly better packaging solutions, we relentlessly look for ways to do things better. It pays off in our souls, and in attracting like-minded people to work with, both under our roof and in our vendors and partners. It feels great to have the acknowledgment for our on-going efforts via this respected gold standard certification." Rita Katona – Co-founder and Executive Chair So Good So You

So Good So You has always operated from a do-good point of view. The company believes that all the good put into the world is interconnected—that good ingredients in good products made with good intentions can do real good in the world. It's why the company's logo is a green heart and it's tagline, somewhat of a peaceful battlecry, 'For The Love of Body and Planet.'

After a two year application and evaluation process So Good So You is joining an elite group of companies including, Patagonia, Ben & Jerry's, Allbirds, Blueland, AlterEco, Seven Sundays and Peace Coffee, to receive B Corp certification. So Good So You looks forward to that list growing longer and having more companies prioritize and excel at providing an environment of exceptional worker well-being, contribution to human rights, and stewardship of resources and planet.
