Meat snack brand Chomps recently became a Certified B Corporation, joining a global community of businesses committed to using their operations as a force for good. The certification, awarded by the nonprofit B Lab, affirms Chomps’ standards of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency.
“At Chomps, our culture starts with the people behind the product,” says Chomps Co-Founder and CEO Rashid Ali. “Becoming a Certified B Corporation is a testament to how we show up for our team and community every day. Not only does it reinforce our commitment to building a business that does right by our team, our customers, and the planet, but it’s a meaningful step in holding ourselves accountable as we raise the bar for how we run our brand.”
Chomps’ B Corp Certification reflects its commitment to responsible business practices across governance, workers, environment, community, and customers, the company says. This performance was driven in part by competitive employee benefits and career development resources, annual product donation commitments, and an employee match program for monetary donations to charities that work towards healthy food access, healthy lifestyle, and protecting the planet. It was also driven by third-party quality requirements and certifications, including Non-GMO Project Verified beef.
As Chomps continues to scale, its B Corp Certification will serve as a framework for continued growth and accountability. The company has numerous initiatives underway including strategic partnerships with organizations like 4ocean to offset plastic waste, and Planet FWD to better measure and report on its carbon footprint. Chomps is also focused on maintaining certifications and sourcing standards throughout scale, including using antibiotic-free turkey and sourced grass-fed and finished beef and venison—all with no added hormones or antibiotics, it says. Through this certification, Chomps is aiming to track progress, set clear goals, and maintain transparency with consumers about where the brand is today and its intentions for the years to come.
“Earning B Corp Certification reflects our belief that companies today must hold themselves to a higher standard—whether it’s how we treat people, protect the planet, or build our culture,” says Chomps President and COO Elizabeth Carter. “This certification is both a celebration of progress and a challenge to keep pushing forward. We're excited to keep evolving alongside other companies who believe in business as a force for good.”
