Today, fitppl was recognized as a B Corp Best For The World honoree for creating positive impact as a business, based on an independent, comprehensive assessment administered by the nonprofit B Lab.

Best For The World honorees are Certified B Corporations that earned scores in the top 10 percent on the B Impact Assessment. In 2018, B Lab recognized nearly 1,000 of the more than 2,500 Certified B Corporations across its lists.¹ The assessment measures a company's positive impact on its workers, community, customers and the environment. To certify as B Corporations, companies must complete the full assessment and have their answers verified by B Lab.

The full B Impact Assessment evaluates a company's environmental performance, employee relationships, diversity, involvement in the local community, the impact a company's product or service has on those it serves, and more. Honorees scoring in the top 10 percent of all B Corporations set a gold standard for companies using business as a force for good. We made the list thanks to practices like our cleanups, zero-waste scoops and organic plant-based ingredients.

B Lab releases separate lists recognizing top-performing B Corporations as Best For Environment, Best For Customers, Best For Governance, Best For Community and Best For Workers. We were honored again in 2019. Read our 2019 announcement.
