Colorado Green Business Network Gold-level Award

The Colorado Green Business Network awarded Leprino Foods gold-level recognition in 2023 for our commitment to integrate sustainability into our daily operations at our Greeley and Fort Morgan production plants.

The Colorado Green Business Network is a voluntary program that encourages, supports and rewards superior environmental performers that go beyond the requirements of environmental regulations and move toward the goal of true, operational sustainability.

In 2023, the program partnered with 341 businesses to realize reductions of over 34,889 metric tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent, 574 million gallons of water and over 27 million kilowatt hours in electricity.

In achieving Gold-level recognition, Leprino is among a group of organizations who excel at sustainable operations in their sector by implementing large scale changes to their organization. By doing so, we can realize reductions while emphasizing sustainability and equity throughout the company.

As a member of the network, which is under the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, we also are part of a community of passionate business owners that seek to support each other in driving change in the state.
