A message from Social Traders CEO, Tara Anderson

At a time when businesses are grappling with the challenge of creating purpose beyond profit, social enterprises have been doing it for decades. And it’s time the whole economy learnt from them and shifted in that direction. 

Certification is your key to being recognised as a social enterprise – by the sector, by funders, by big business and by government.  

The number of certified social enterprises is growing by an average of 16% every year. We want all social enterprises to be certified so they can be recognised, win new contracts, access capacity building support and secure grant funding or social investment. 78% of certified social enterprises have increased their revenue between certification periods. 

My ask – stand up and be proud of who we are, by getting certified 

Let’s be unwavering in making our identity as social enterprises known. Let’s clearly state who we are, so we can tell the country why we matter. Because if we harness our collective energy, everything is possible. 

Join us at the forefront of the shift to business for good.
