Thriving in Business by Prioritizing People, Planet, and Profit - Part 2

The Mindful Marketplace with Joel Skene

Can businesses truly thrive while championing the planet and its people? Eric Henry of TS Designs joins us with a resounding "Yes!" as he shares how his company's unwavering commitment to the triple bottom line has not only been beneficial but also vital for success. We discuss the surprisingly robust advantages of fostering local connections and supply chains, with Eric's 17-year collaboration with a cotton farmer showcasing the stability and resilience that long-term partnerships can bring to a business, especially amidst the unpredictability of global markets.
In the apparel industry, making the switch from synthetic fibers to water-based inks isn't just about being eco-friendly—it's a testament to a company's dedication to quality and longevity. Eric walks us through the challenges and successes of TS Designs' sustainable manufacturing process, emphasizing the economic sense of investing in durable goods. With a pair of long-lasting boots serving as a metaphor for the intrinsic value of sustainability, this episode is a treasure trove of insights for consumers and businesses alike who prioritize more than the price tag. Join us as we unravel the power of community-centric entrepreneurship, where the true measure of success is found in the strength of our connections and the collective well-being of our world.
