What is B Corp?

B Corporations are a new kind of company which uses the power of business to solve social and environmental problems.  

There are currently over 600 Certified B Corporations from 18 countries and sixty industries working together toward 1 unifying goal: to redefine success in business.

Government and the nonprofit sector are necessary but insufficient to address society’s greatest challenges. Business, the most powerful man-made force on the planet, must create value for society, not just shareholders. Systemic challenges require systemic solutions and the B Corp movement offers a concrete, market-based and scalable solution.

Certified B Corporations voluntarily meet higher standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. They distinguish themselves in a cluttered marketplace by offering a positive vision of a better way to do business.  They are trying not just to be the best in the world, but to be the best for the world.

B Corporation movement is like a LEED certification, but for a business, not just a building.
The performance standards are comprehensive and transparent.  They measure a company’s impact on its employees, suppliers, community, and the environmental.  



Mikado is proud to be a Certified B CorporationTM.
