A This shift in consumer demand has led to a renewal of stock market interest in these more traditional firms. As is the case with the green giants, their stock market value regularly and significantly outperforms a portfolio of less forward-thinking competitors.

B Thanks to the vision of these, and other, brave entrepreneurs, they have silenced many of the doubters by collectively generating over $100 billion in annual revenue. Not only that, they do so with profit margins that are generally wider than the industry averages.

C That’s why these companies thrive even though their ethical and humane raw ingredients are more expensive. Their whole cost structure has been built to accommodate these higher prices, so they still command healthy profit margins nearly three times the industry average.

D So if a product targets only a consumer niche, it’s hard to make any significant revenue; there simply aren’t enough people who take green values seriously enough to get you there. Green giants, however, appeal to mainstream customers or consumers.

E But while these perceived notions of it being an exercise in saving rather than making money are still widespread, they are not actually supported by the overwhelming bulk of evidence. Several green giants are actually growing faster than conventional business lines.

F There are now, however, at least nine companies globally that generate a billion dollars or more in annual revenue from products or services that have sustainability or social good at their core. They perhaps provide the evidence needed to convince even the hardest of these cynics.

G This fact is confirmed by numerous conversations I’ve had with professionals who promote the cause of the sustainable industry. Some are still struggling to persuade many of their business colleagues of the case for change.
