Since its founding in 2014, Thrive Market has become the leading
online destination for conscious consumers seeking healthy food and
sustainable products at an affordable price, delivered to their
door. The company carries more than 6,000 better-for-you items,
from pantry staples to sustainable home and beauty products,
including more than 500 under its own Thrive Market label.
This honor comes on the heels of another major announcement for
the company in February, when it became the first-ever online-only
retailer to receive USDA approval to accept SNAP EBT payments
online, improving access to healthy food for the more than 40
million Americans who rely on food stamps.
“We’re incredibly proud to have been named to the renowned CNBC
Disruptor 50 list following a milestone year on our mission to make
healthy and sustainable living accessible to all,” says Nick Green,
Thrive Market Co-Founder and CEO.
In the last year, Thrive Market formally became a Public Benefit
Corporation, codifying its mission into a corporate structure and
establishing a commitment to stakeholders and shareholders. The
brand is also on track to build the world’s first climate-positive
grocery store by 2025 through its environmentally sustainable
operating model, going beyond damage minimization to net-positive
impact.
