STUDIO FSR, in July 2025, became North Dakota's first B Corporation: a company committed to rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability as verified by global nonprofit B Lab.
Certified B Corporations, B Corps for short, are for-profit companies dedicated to using business as a force for good. B Corps shift economic systems: from profiting only the few to benefitting all; from concentrating wealth and power to ensuring equity; from extraction to regeneration; and from prioritizing individualism to embracing interdependence.
To meet the performance requirement, a company must earn a minimum, independently-verified score of 80 points on the B Impact Assessment, which rigorously examines a company’s impact on its workers, community, customers, and environment.
"As the first B Corp in North Dakota, we are proud to lead the change in this region towards a more balanced business mindset."
- Frederick Robin
Alongside companies such as Patagonia, Athleta, Toms Shoes, Aveda, and over 6,300 other businesses in over 80 countries, STUDIO FSR is part of the global change towards a more intentional and sustainable business philosophy. Business can, must, and will play a leading changemaker role.
