To scale the regenerative movement, farmers need strong allies throughout the supply chain. They need brands willing to open the path for consumers to experience certified regenerative ingredients. Brands sharing a common cause with growers, retailers, and logistical partners to ensure trust, transparency, and environmental stewardship are grounded in the products we use everyday. Brands like Pacha Soap Co. , partnering with smallholder farmers to direct-source Certified Regenified palm kernel oil, sunflower oil, and shea butter. We love this video from Whole Foods Market, tracing the journey from Kansas to West Africa to produce the world’s first regenerative bar soap. https://lnkd.in/g59FpK5U

Last week, during our annual all-company gathering, we took the opportunity to give back to both our local community and those in need across the nation. In Hastings, Nebraska, our team got creative by painting mini pumpkins, which we donated to local charities and non-profits along with bags of self-care products. It was a small way for us to say “thank you” and bring some joy to those who work tirelessly to support our community. We also responded to the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene by sending soap and other essential items to the people of Asheville, North Carolina. Along with the donations, our team wrote heartfelt messages of encouragement to help uplift spirits and offer relief during this challenging time.

Have you ever noticed the QR codes on our retail signs and packaging? We use QR codes to easily share product information with both retailers and consumers, enhancing the overall experience. Here's how we integrate QR codes into our packaging and signage: 🤝 At trade shows, QR codes help us quickly share information. For example, at Expo West earlier this year, we launched an online quiz to help attendees discover their ideal bar soap scent. To make it easy for people to access the quiz on their devices, we added a QR code that took them directly to it. 🛒 At Pacha, we sell our bar soaps "naked" whenever possible to reduce packaging waste. Since there’s no packaging to hold product details, we use small signs called Blend Tags. Each Blend Tag provides product information along with a QR code, which shoppers can scan to instantly learn more about our products and visit our website. 📦 For products that do come packaged, we include QR codes for easy access to more detailed information. Our latest product, the Regenerative Bar Soaps, features a QR code on the side of the box that links to a special webpage with in-depth details about how the soap is made and its sustainability efforts. We create all our QR codes using Digiphy, which allows us to easily generate codes that guide consumers to any webpage they need.

Last month, we launched the world's first Regenerative Bar Soap! These bars are the most comprehensive fulfillment of Pacha’s vision and mission as an organization. (And it’s a great bar of soap!) At Pacha, we believe that regenerative agriculture has a critical role to play in healing our agricultural system and our planet. People don’t generally think about where their soap comes from, but we’ve gone straight to the farmers who grow palm kernels, shea nuts and sunflowers. These direct-sourcing partnerships are a differentiator for our products and our brand and we are proud to be able to share the stories behind this true labor of love.

"Many times, impact is seen as purely an external exercise - something we do outside of ourselves. I think for impact to be real and to be continuously regenerative (much like ecosystems) there needs to be a deep connection to the “why” or purpose behind our external actions. The closer we get to that “why”, the more it provides vision and fills out the impact externally. The idea of wanting to change the world starts with ourselves." ~ Andrew Vrbas, CEO Learn more in our 2023 Annual Report - https://lnkd.in/gbp4t6yn
