From inception to innovation
Our Evolution
Certified Green Partners (CGP) embarked on its journey in Miami, Florida, in 2008 with a clear mission: to educate and empower industry leaders and organizations. Our commitment was to cultivate environmental responsibility, promote social equity, and instill governance excellence. This mission led us on a transformative path.
Our voyage began with educational seminars aimed at print shops, addressing pressing issues such as paper usage, inks, and recycling. However, we soon realized that seminars alone wouldn’t suffice. In response, we developed an integrated management program that aligned with global standards, setting the stage for our unwavering dedication to sustainability.
In 2012, we joined forces with the Developers & Builders Alliance (DBA), fortifying our position in sustainable development. The merger in May 2019 saw CGP and DBA combine under the Certified Green Partners name, further reinforcing our mission.
A pivotal moment in our drive arrived in 2021. A comprehensive review reaffirmed our commitment to our roots while expanding our program’s scope. We ventured into critical areas such as food safety, cosmetics quality, pharmaceutical compliance, and packaging excellence.
This marked our dedication to upholding global standards and best practices in these industries. Our integrated management system program remained at the forefront, revolutionizing organizations by optimizing operations, reducing environmental impact, and fostering sustainable practices worldwide.
In 2023, we entered the next chapter, welcoming a distinguished group of individuals into the CGP family, both as Corporate and Advisory Directors. These accomplished leaders, representing diverse industries, share our vision for a sustainable future and bring a wealth of expertise to our program. Their integration into CGP marks a significant milestone, reflecting the evolving landscape of modern business and the imperative for collaborative efforts to drive environmental change
This narrative encapsulates our transformative journey as we continue to educate, empower, and lead towards a sustainable and responsible future.
