Fermenstation is making waves with its unique fermentation technology, aiming to build a society that regenerates and recirculates these precious resources. The company recently released its first-ever impact report, demonstrating its commitment to both business viability and social impact, as well as shedding light on its sustainable activities during 2022.
Fermenstation’s central mission revolves around striking a balance between its business pursuits and the broader social good. By meticulously outlining its goals and models for impact, the company is able to reflect on its actions and results from a variety of angles. Such unwavering dedication earned Fermenstation the coveted B Corp certification in March 2022, an international recognition reserved for companies generating comprehensive benefits for local communities, the environment, customers, and employees alike.
The release of this inaugural impact report signals Fermenstation’s eagerness to share its multifaceted activities and accomplishments with stakeholders, setting the stage for future growth and success. At the heart of the report is the question, “What is a Fermenstation-esque impact model?” The company emphasizes the unique nature of its approach, which focuses on generating multiple positive impacts rather than zeroing in on a singular goal.
Fermenstation’s business model revolves around the “upcycling loop of unused resources,” which is designed to deliver positive impacts to a diverse array of stakeholders, from the global environment to local producers and consumers. By spreading upcycled materials and products, the company strives to create a wide-reaching ripple effect of benefits. Ultimately, Fermenstation envisions a future where society fully embraces a circular economy, maximizing the potential of every resource and minimizing waste.
