Metroflor CEO Awarded for Global Sustainability Leadership
Norwalk, Conn. -- The Business Intelligence Group recently named Harlan Stone, Halstead/Metroflor Group CEO, a Sustainability Hero for the 2018 Sustainability Awards. The Sustainability Awards honor people, teams, and organizations who have made sustainability an integral part of their business practice or overall mission. Metroflor was also named a Sustainability Initiative of the Year (Project) finalist for achieving the JUST social justice label for its Asian manufacturing facility.
The longstanding “Made in China” stigma leads many American companies to hide the origin of their products made there. Stone was acknowledged for becoming completely transparent about the processes, product ingredients, and social responsibility element of the Elegant Home-Tech manufacturing facility, which culminated in achieving the first-ever JUST label for a Chinese manufacturer.
