Figuring out which retail companies best with the things you are currently concerned about can be tricky - a company may do well in one area and fail in another.
I have a few resources for finding out about various companies. It's good to look up a company / brand / product in more than one place and then figure out which comes closest to being one of the "good" ones.
One of my favorite resources about shopping intentionally is THE WOKE GINGER.
Justin Kralemann, aka The Woke Ginger, is a social media influencer from St. Louis. I have found his videos to be well-researched, informative, fair, and easy to understand. I highly recommend taking some time and going to one of his accounts to watch a few of his video shorts. These are definitely a big part of my efforts to shop more intentionally. They are not the best when you are trying to find info about something specific. But it's great if you just think of his videos as ongoing learning in small bites. You never know what topic he might focus on from day to day, so just be open to learning.
Important Side Note
The Woke Ginger is currently involved in a wrongful termination lawsuit. He was let go after a post he did calling out Enterprise Mobility over its ties to ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement).
You can read about that lawsuit here. (Hoodline St. Louis)
I am including contact information for Enterprise Mobility and Food Outreach Inc in case you care to let either of these folks know what you think. It's important that people not be silenced or intimidated for sharing information on how companies conduct their business on issues that are important to the public!!!
