About Urban Remedy
Urban Remedy is a plant based organic food company on a mission to reimagine the food system and teach the world that food is healing. All of Urban Remedy's ultra-fresh and ready-to-eat meals, snacks and cold pressed juices are organic, non-GMO, gluten free, dairy free, low-glycemic and anti-inflammatory. Urban Remedy is sold at over 330 Whole Foods Market locations, 600 Kroger locations and 500 Canadian locations. Founded over 10 years ago, with over 120 employees, they are also a certified B Corporation meeting rigorous standards of environmental and social performance, accountability and transparency.
The challenge: implementing a data-driven culture on sustainability reporting
Urban Remedy is a female-founded, B Corp Certified food supplier with sustainability values built into its DNA. The business had management buy-in for best-in-class sustainability practices from the start but lacked the resources and tools to implement a data-driven strategy for its sustainability reporting. When its investors, Manna Tree Partners, provided KEY ESG for all their portfolio companies, it created an opportunity for Urban Remedy to become more data-driven about its sustainability strategy. Urban Remedy began using the KEY ESG platform to submit data for ESG Data Convergence Initiative (EDCI) reporting. This includes a range of appropriate metrics on HR, workplace turnover, carbon emissions, net zero targets.
Caitlin Heffley, Head of Customer Service at Urban Remedy, who leads the sustainability reporting function, commented:
“KEY ESG has helped us get organised and get the data together to tell a compelling story around our sustainability strategy.”
