Vector Global Logistics earns B Corp Certification

Vector Global Logistics, an award winning logistics company with offices in multiple countries, is thrilled to announce that they have earned a coveted B Corp Certification(TM). Joining just over 8,000 companies worldwide, B Corps are for-profit companies dedicated to using business as a force for good. Unlike traditional corporations, B Corps are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on all stakeholders: customers, workers, communities, and the environment. This certification is further proof that Vector is living out their motto, Logistics With Purpose®.

“This is a monumental day in Vector’s history,” says Vector Global Logistics Co-Founder and Managing Director Enrique Alvarez. “Though purpose, giving back, and being a force for good has been part of our DNA since day one, obtaining a B Corp Certification(TM) is a significant step for us. We will continue to push our industry forward and create a positive impact. And we are excited to do that alongside the incredible B Corp community.”

Brian Oxley, Vector Global Logistics Co-Founder and Managing Director, continues, “It is our long-held belief that logistics and supply chain are a great place to start when you want to create change. We are proud of all that our team has accomplished to this point, and know that a B Corp Certification(TM) will propel us even further.”

“We are delighted to welcome Vector Global Logistics into the community,” says João Campos, Growth Manager, Large & Multinational Company at B Lab U.S. & Canada. “The B Corp movement is a global movement of People Using Business as a Force for Good®, and Vector has demonstrated that they are committed to the mission through their values and actions. We understand the significant role that logistics and supply chain play in creating a better world, and their certification is a win for us all.”

Achieving B Corp Certification(TM) is a rigorous process and took a concerted effort by Vector’s team across multiple departments in several countries. The certification is based on three essential pillars. First, to meet the performance requirement, a company must earn a minimum, verified score of 80 points on the B Impact Assessment, which examines a company’s overall impact on its workers, community, customers, and environment. Second, once certified, each B Corp must make its B Impact Report transparent on bcorporation.net, allowing the public to see the areas in which specific companies excel and compare B Corps' scores against the performance of mainstream businesses. And third, by meeting the legal requirement for certification, B Corps like Vector are better able to maintain mission as they scale.
