Fact sheet
The Green Business Partnership is open to all businesses in Sarasota County, regardless of type or size, that implement environmental standards documented through an on-site certification assessment. Certification is valid for three years, after which a recertification process will be required. Certification may be revoked if a later site assessment reveals that a business no longer meets the certification standards.

Participate in an on-site visit to verify that your business meets the required standards.
Then enjoy the environmental and business benefits of being a Green Business Partner.
