Acre Has Been Granted B-Corp Certification...But What Does That Mean? And What''s Next?
NORTHAMPTON, MA | ACCESSWIRE | September 27, 2022 | Acre: Announcing that whilst speaking publicly for the first time about our new accreditation, which confirms our commitment to progressive social impact and environmental stewardship, may seem counterintuitive; if we aren''t celebrating, why are we announcing it? But it''s complicated. Our business has been working in this way and operating with the sole purpose of building a better world for just shy of 20 years - and in some ways, the badge doesn''t earn us any stripes that we didn''t already wear with pride. Yes - we put our environmental and ethical commitments to the test, and they stood up well. That is validating, but it''d be disingenuous to say that we were surprised by our certification. B-Corp says that most organisations would fail the assessment the first time, but we are, and always have been, determined to create a positive, sustainable legacy for Acre, for our society, and our planet by having influence and providing value to businesses who are ambitious to create change.
