Employee happiness feels different and special at Boll & Branch… We’re beyond proud to share that Boll & Branch has been named one of America’s Top Most Loved Workplaces® by Best Practice Institute (BPI)! Published by Newsweek Magazine, this list recognizes companies that do what we’ve believed in from the very beginning—putting respect, care, and appreciation for their employees above all else. It means so much to know that our Dream Team took the time to share their positive experiences with BPI. BPI and Most Loved Workplace Founder and CEO Louis Carter shared: “When companies set up employees to succeed, the entire organization thrives. This year’s Top America’s Most Loved Workplaces shows that fostering love of the workplace isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s a key driver of performance and retention… Our work won’t be done until every company in the world is Most Loved Workplace® certified, and every employee loves showing up to their job each day.” Congratulations to the Boll & Branch team on helping make this an incredible place to work, and thank you to Louis Carter and Scott Baxt at Most Loved Workplaces® for recognizing companies that believe in doing what’s right.

What does it take to disrupt a category? ⤵️ Last week, founders of L'AVANT Collective, Lindsay Droz and Kristi Lord, CFA, joined us for an employee Lunch & Learn where they shared their #startup story, along with their views on what it takes to create a thriving business that innovates in an established category—in their case, cleaning products. Here are our team's top takeaways: ⏰ CHANGE HAPPENS WHEN YOU MAKE TIME FOR IT: “We met in 2009, and in 2018, Kristi said, ‘Let’s go to Mexico. It's my 40th birthday, and we’re going to go sit on the beach and build our business plan.’ That’s exactly what we did. We wanted to get clarity around what we wanted to build. As soon as we had our L’AVANT Collective LLC, we left our jobs, and it was game on.” – Lindsay 🌊 SUCCESS IS NOT LINEAR: “You have a lot of stops and starts when you start a company. It took almost 2 years to get our formulas right, 3 years to launch, and it taught me—as someone who’s goal and process oriented—that you have to have patience, and you have to ride the waves.” – Kristi ✏️ COMPELLING STORYTELLING DEMANDS AUTHENTICITY: "People are hungry for what your brand is made of. We realized that the story is so much greater than the perfection, and it’s the story that people are buying into. We really believe that authenticity is what has driven our engagement, and built trust with our community.” – Lindsay ⁉️ ENTREPRENEURS EMBRACE THE UNKNOWN: “Acquired podcast Co-Host, Ben Gilbert says, ‘Entrepreneurs are unreasonable.’ For me, it’s having this belief in myself, in Kristi in the team, in our product. I have this unreasonable belief that we can do this, and we’re going to be great at it.” – Lindsay This is why we partner with L'AVANT—because their story is such an inspiration, aligns with our value system, and keeps us motivated to innovate in places we know we can make great impact. We proudly offer L'AVANT laundry detergent, wool balls, and laundry oil, available in all Boll & Branch retail locations. Thank you, Lindsay and Kristi, for your time and wisdom! 

Challenging long-standing industry norms can be a lonely business, so it was amazing to see our Founder and CEO, Scott Tannen, in good company at the 2024 Fast Company Innovation Festival. On the panel Building a More Responsible Supply Chain, Scott sat alongside Joke Aerts (Head of Credible Scaling, Tony's Open Chain, Tony's Chocolonely) and Kimberly Shenk (Cofounder and CEO, Novi Connect), both of whom are making meaningful inroads upending exploitative methods in supply chain management, bringing a new level of transparency and accountability to their industries. The path of honesty, as all three shared, is unquestionably harder, but vital in bringing better products made in better ways to market. And they hope the work they're doing will encourage everyone else to follow suit. Read more about the conversation and please share your thoughts below: https://lnkd.in/gan_WpkY #FCFestival
