New Mobile App Offers Database of Sustainable Product Ratings
HowGood, a New York-based independent research organization, launched a new mobile app available for both iPhone and Android users that offers consumers a database of product ratings for more than 100,000 sustainable products.
Over the past seven years, HowGood has developed what is said to be the world’s largest database of sustainable food ratings. The in-store rating system identifies industry leaders in the food system based on multiple metrics, then highlights these ratings for consumers at the point of purchase. The app consists of over 60 industry-specific indicators per food item, from ingredient sourcing to labor practices.
