Image Outfitters, an advertising specialties company has implemented a new product portal on their website that makes it easy for companies to make responsible choices when searching for branded merchandise that is ‘Sustainable’, ‘Recycled’ or ‘Made in the USA’. Image Outfitters is the first and only advertising specialties company in the United States to become a certified B Corporation and has been championing social responsibility through their iShare Charitable Donations Program. In the past two years since the program’s inception, Image Outfitters has donated 10 percent of each new sale to a nonprofit of the client’s choosing – giving to over 60 different charities so far!
In regards to the company’s continued efforts to promote responsible and sustainable business practices, Image Outfitters Founder & CEO Esbert Cardenas said, “Since we made the promise to donate 10% of all new business to a 501 (c)(3) of the client’s choice in their name, we’ve looked for other ways to make sure that all aspects of our company were in line with our desire to use business as a catalyst for positive change. Making sure our clients have access to the most responsibly sourced products was the obvious next step to continue to build on Image Outfitters’ socially and environmentally responsible mission.”
