Discover the impact B Corps are making in the world and what that means for you with Bri Decker of Avocado Mattress...

Feeling inspired by nature and the outdoors from a young age, Bri Decker has spent her entire professional career promoting conservation and social responsibility through a variety of unique angles. Combining over a decade of experience with the political sector, nonprofit and public policy, the outdoor industry, international work, and scaling social enterprises, Bri is passionate about using capitalism to benefit stakeholders and promoting a greater good. 

She is currently leading Avocado Mattress’s social responsibility and sustainability projects by creating new standards of sustainability within the industry and the world at large.

Avocado’s mission is to be the most respected source for green mattresses and pillows at affordable prices — while maintaining environmentally conscious, ethical, and sustainable business practices — to help safeguard your health and protect the planet. 

As part of their commitment to sustainability, they focus on natural and organic materials and supporting environmental causes — in which Avocado is deeply invested: They’re a member of 1% For the Planet; they match 100 percent of their energy use with wind energy certificates, and they are the first mattress company to become Climate Neutral Certified. In 2020, their mission is to become a carbon negative business.

Bri will be sharing her journey into the 17 Global Goals and Avocado Mattress journey achieving  B Corp status.
