🌱 Mindful Proteins Re-Certifies as a Benefit Corporation for Good

It’s official — Mindful Proteins has once again affirmed its commitment to a mission that values people, planet, and profit. In July 2025, our company announced it successfully re‑certified as a Benefit Corporation for Good (BCFG), underscoring its unwavering focus on positive social and environmental impact 

What It Means to Be a Benefit Corporation for Good

Mindful Proteins became a certified BCFG to formalize its purpose-driven ethos. As the founders shared, BCFG offers “a proven, affordable third‑party standard to certify their commitment to social and environmental impact”. This designation goes beyond typical corporate social responsibility: it requires a holistic commitment to the triple bottom line—people, planet, and profit.

The Re-Certification Process

Re-certification isn’t a symbolic gesture. Each year, Mindful Proteins completes a comprehensive questionnaire measuring its:

• Employee wellbeing and governance practices

• Environmental impact

• Community and customer engagement

• Business performance relative to mission

The process includes an in‑depth review with BCFG founders, using their expertise and community network to identify areas for continuous improvement year over year.

Why This Matters

For Mindful Proteins and its customers, re-certification confirms:

• A sustained and measurable commitment to positive change

• Active participation in a community of purpose-driven businesses, exchanging best practices and insights A transparent, ongoing process of refinement to align operations with ethical values

Looking Ahead

Mindful Proteins sees re-certification not as an endpoint, but as motivation to elevate its impact. With each intake of the questionnaire, the company reassesses:

• How to create a better workplace

• How to shrink its environmental footprint even further

• How to deliver value for customers without compromising sustainability or ethics 

As the certification landscape evolves, the standards remain rigorous—and growing. Similar frameworks, like B Lab’s B Impact Assessment, require companies to recertify every few years, reflecting an increasing emphasis on measurable change and transparency
