Annual Benefit Report

As part of our commitment and certification as an Oregon Benefit Company, we are required to post an Annual Benefit Report.  This report publicly states what our company is currently doing to balance people, planet, and profit.  Figures in this report will change and evolve from year to year as we grow and evolve as a company.  We believe in full transparency in all of our business practices.

History of our Designation

In early February of 2019, we registered with the Oregon Secretary of State’s office as an Oregon Benefit Company.  We followed this by undergoing a rigorous examination of all business practices by the only Oregon-based certifying body, Benefit Corporations for Good.  In mid-February, we received word that we successfully passed our certification.  This certification means that we are held accountable to the highest standard in Oregon for ethical and sustainable business practices.  We are proud of this certification and what is stands for in the business community.

Questions About Becoming an Oregon Benefit Company

The owners of our company, David and Angela Anderson, are owners of another benefit corporation and have been part of the Oregon Benefit Company community since its legal inception in 2014.  If you have any questions on what this certification means, how to become one, or how to make sure there is accountability in the sustainability community, they are more than happy to answer any and all questions openly and honestly.  Additional research can also be obtained by contacting the Oregon Secretary of State’s Small Business Division or our certifying body, Benefit Corporations for Good.
