About us

We believe that all businesses (not just big corporations) deserve equal access to the highest level of sustainability, reporting and certifications.
We’re proud to have delivered simple and effective sustainability through our partnerships; with an added flavour of activism-aligned thought.
Through the Shift Implementation Platform and Product-Led Consulting methodology, we’re redesigning what sustainability means to business.
