Honor Thy Label: Dr. Bronner's Unconventional Journey to a Clean, Green, and Ethical Supply Chain - By Gero Leson

What’s in a label? For us, it’s more than ingredients or intentions—it spells out an ethical commitment to fairness and sustainable growth, uniting customers, companies, farmers, producers, and communities worldwide.

Our Magic Soaps are renowned for their dense product labels (All-One!) and the curious tingling of peppermint. But how did we transform the small print into soaring sales—inspiring customer loyalty not just with lather, but with good clean business?

Through stories of harrowing setbacks and hard-won success in projects that span the globe, Gero Leson—Dr. Bronner’s VP of Special Operations—reveals how he builds and scales ethical production from the ground up. He proves that when done right, the cascading results benefit customers, communities, and the environment we share. Honor Thy Label invites socially conscious entrepreneurs and shoppers on a journey to break the boundaries of production.
