About Bamboo Sushi

In partnership with the world’s leading marine conservation organizations, Bamboo Sushi is proud to be the first certified, sustainable sushi restaurant in the world.

We fundamentally believe that accountability and transparency are paramount to great business practices and financial success. B Corp certification allows for us to build upon our already rigorous operations and food certifications, so that we can incorporate a legal framework certification that follows suit. By becoming B Corp certified we now have certifications from independent third party auditng organizations for all aspects of our operations: environmental, social, and legal.

The Change We Seek™

Born out of a desire to change the existing business paradigm that says altruism and profitability are mutually exclusive, Bamboo Sushi represents an innovative business that aims to do good for its customers, its community, and the environment, while still earning a profit. Ultimately, Bamboo Sushi employs business practices that serve to achieve greater social equity and support the local economy, while ensuring the highest standard of environmental sustainability possible.
