Full Company Membership

Full Company

For full company members, we certify giving for 1% of your company’s total annual revenue. Because you give 1% of your total annual revenue to environmental causes, you can use our 1% for the Planet logo across every channel and on all of your products. You can become a full-company member no matter how much your company does in annual sales.

Examples: Patagonia, 4 Pines Brewing, Klean Kanteen, Cotopaxi

Brand Level Membership

Brand Level

Brand level membership is for brands or companies that are owned by a larger entity. They commit to giving 1% of total annual revenue for all sales made through the brand and must provide proof of revenue for the sales of the brand. While the brand has full access to use the 1% for the Planet logo to use on products and across all channels, the parent company does not. Brand level membership may also apply to multinational companies who choose to commit to giving 1% of total annual revenue for all sales made in specific countries.

Example: Pukka Herbs (owned by Lipton teas & infusions), Oranique (owned by Sochka Systems pty ltd)

Product line members may use the 1% for the Planet logo only on products that are registered under their membership

What our members are saying.

The 1% for the Planet model provides businesses with more than just an easy way to give back.

"Home has always been the center of OXO’s world. When we joined 1% in 2019, home was, and remains, more important than ever. We also think a lot about the home we all share—the planet. 1% for the Planet has allowed us to connect to more people and organizations in order to make sure that we can make the everyday better for decades to come —for the home, and for our planet—the home we all share."

AMALIA SAFRAN, BRAND COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER at OXO

We couldn't do it without the 1% community. When I think of my founder friends who have the greatest influence on me, they're all 1% for the Planet members. The values are contagious.”

SCOTT WOODS, CEO, WEST ARETE

“We see 1% for the Planet as Avocado’s advocacy or activism “plug in.” It connects us to a vetted army of nonprofits that are doing the work we want to support. With the 1% team’s help, we can quickly find the right resource to help support the issue we are looking to publicly support. It allows us to be nimble and reactive and truly live our values out in real time.”

JESSICA HANN, SVP BRAND & SUSTAINABILITY at AVOCADO GREEN BRANDS

"Our 1% for the Planet giving is tied into everything we do, and we repeatedly hear from customers that it is something that matters to them and influences their decision making when it comes to purchasing beer.

ANNE MARISIC, PARTNERSHIPS AND COMMUNICATIONS AT MAINE BEER COMPANY

"We launched an entire collection, ENO Giving Back Hammock Collection, designed to support our partners from 1% for the Planet with a portion of proceeds from each hammock sold going back tc the respective organizations. The program is trackable and we see great support for our partnership hammocks."

Anna Rawlins, Marketing Director at ENO
