HOW WAS SHIFT GROUP FOUNDED?
Shift Group was founded by Stefan Doering, a sustainability professor, serial entrepreneur, and business coach, who currently resides in New York.
Stefan’s journey in sustainability and entrepreneurship began when he was 17. And when he was a mere 25, he founded the sustainable business that launched his journey as a serial entrepreneur. As a young man who had always been a sustainability enthusiast, Stefan knew there was a gap in the market when he couldn’t buy recycled toilet paper unless he bought a case of 96 paper rolls!
“What am I going to do with so many?” he thought. That’s when he started Earth General, the Walmart of environmental stores and the largest of its kind in the country at the time.
Earth General screened all its inventory based on its environmental impact, and even today, many years after the business has closed down, people still rave about it. But that was not the end of the road for Stefan and since then, he’s started multiple businesses, including Shift Group, all centered around sustainability and making a positive impact on the environment, community, and economy.
Stefan focuses on teaching ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance), TBL (Triple Bottom Line), and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) components to sustainable businesses so that they can grow and scale profitably without leaving behind a carbon footprint in their wake.
After all, who said you can’t do well by doing good?
