Becoming an HEC Green Business is a meaningful way to demonstrate your commitment to environmental progress in Indiana.
Part of HEC’s vision for Indiana is a green economy with businesses that embrace sustainability – from the products they sell, to the services they offer, to their internal business practices. HEC is proud to be celebrating 10 years of partnering with Indiana businesses to make our state a better place to live, breathe, work and play.
We encourage you to support these HEC Green Businesses!
Is your business promoting sustainable and local food, investing in clean energy, fostering cleaner water and air, and/or engaging in other green-minded activities? All businesses asked to join the HEC Green Business program are researched and vetted for their commitment to environmental stewardship. If you believe your business practices are in line with our mission, we’d love to hear from you.
We hope you’ll consider becoming an HEC Green Business and benefit from our year-round outreach, networking and professional development efforts.
