Organic food maker Amy’s Kitchen has received a B Corp Certification due to its long-time commitment of "doing well by doing good," says the food maker.
From its start, Amy’s Kitchen has been committed to cooking vegetarian meals with meticulously sourced organic ingredients and taking care of people. This dedication to making organic meals more accessible and convenient for people, and the inherent benefits to people and the environment, along with Amy’s values-driven principles of taking care of its employees and the community, are the basis for Amy’s B Corp Certification.
“When we founded Amy’s over three decades ago it was based on the premise that making great tasting food, from responsibly sourced, organic ingredients, would fulfill a need and make people’s lives easier,” said Andy Berliner, founder and chairman of Amy’s Kitchen and Amy’s Drive Thru, in a statement. “Over the years, we’ve learned that choosing to do what’s right for people and our planet, even when it’s not the easiest option, is what leads to success in business and in the positive impact we can make.”
“Amy’s Kitchen is an exciting addition to our B Corp community, given the company’s leadership position within the industry and its broad and loyal consumer base,” said Andy Fyfe, growth catalyst for B Lab US & Canada, in a statement. “While the median score for the average company is 50.9, Amy’s score of 102.7 showcases its longstanding leadership as a brand that is devoted to doing good by people and the planet through its products and company practices.”
