Change Comes in Waves with United By Blue Founder & CEO Brian Linton
United By Blue Founder & CEO Brian Linton talks about how the organic and eco-friendly clothing and accessories retailer is leading the charge when it comes to sustainability innovation. A certified B Corp since 2011, Philadelphia-based United By Blue makes its products out of recycled and organic materials, removing one pound of trash from oceans and waterways for every product purchased – leading to over three million pounds of trash removed to date. Brian discusses the ways growing up in Asia influenced him as an entrepreneur, creating jobs during COVID-19 by setting up a grocery delivery program for seniors in the company’s home city, and his philosophy that ‘change comes in waves.’ Listen in to hear about United By Blue’s role in coordinating the Mission Brand Alliance to support similar mission-driven companies, and learn more at unitedbyblue.com.
