Patagonia

We’re in business to save our home planet. Founded by Yvon Chouinard in 1973, Patagonia is an outdoor apparel company based in Ventura, California. A certified B Corporation and a founding member of 1% for the Planet, the company is recognized internationally for its product quality and environmental activism. Its unique ownership structure reflects that Earth is now its only shareholder: profits that are not reinvested back into the business are paid as dividends to help fight the climate crisis. Patagonia focuses on creating high-quality, durable clothing and gear for sports such as climbing, surfing, skiing, snowboarding, fly fishing, and trail running. By prioritizing longevity and repairability, the company aims to reduce the environmental footprint of its products. Through its 'Worn Wear' program, Patagonia encourages customers to repair, share, and recycle their gear. Beyond apparel, Patagonia Provisions works to reform the food industry through organic regenerative farming practices. The company’s activism is central to its identity, supporting grassroots environmental organizations and engaging in litigation to protect public lands and waters. By leveraging its resources and global community, Patagonia continues to challenge conventional business models while advocating for systemic change to protect the natural world.
