Capitalism prevailed, derived from many social problems, such as food safety and environmental pollution. Due to being unable to rely on market mechanisms to solve these problems, the government began to require enterprises to implement Corporate Social Responsibility. However, Corporate Social Responsibility is deeply influenced by the preference and willingness of business leaders, Enterprises taking CSR can not totally solve social problems. The government is confirmed by budget constraints and is less responsive to market demand; nonprofit organizations rely on donations, resulting in lack of sustainability. In recent years, there is a switch from the traditional mode firms, thinking in a new way, to form the so called - B Corporation. With the increasing number of organizations and finite resources, how to measure organizational performance will be important. Therefore, this thesis uses the Social Return on Investment (SROI) method to evaluate the social impact that Greenvines certified by B Corporation moringa oil program had created.
This study is processed by face-to-face interviews and literature review. In conclusion, I find Greenvine can ensure against Moringa Connect supplying the necessary equipment for small farmers by the means of pre-financing to Moringa Connect. Resulting in is more than 2,000 small farmers are helped and their lives get better now. Moreover, I can also find that the social and economic benefits on investing moringa oil program is significant. To be precise, for every US$ 1 invested in moringa oil program, there is a social return of US$ 2.9. If the program is implemented for a long enough time, the social benefits will be more significant. Finally, this study suggests that the government should establish incentives and counseling mechanisms to encourage the transformation of small and medium enterprises to achieve economic and environmental balance, business and staff win-win situation, create a better society. | en_US |
