Value-Based Shopping Apps

Veebs Encourages Consumers to Learn About a Brand's Ethical Values

— July 12, 2024 — Social Good
Veebs is a new grocery shopping-focused mobile application that revolutionizes consumer decision-making by providing comprehensive insights into corporate social values. Since its debut, this innovative shopping tool has empowered grocery shoppers to scan product barcodes and instantly retrieve the company's unique 'V Score.' This score, graded from 0 to 100, meticulously evaluates factors such as political alignment and dedication to "America-first" initiatives, providing consumers with information on the company's ethical standing.

With each scan, Veebs promptly categorizes the product's rating as good, fair, or poor, enabling users to curate personalized lists of preferred and non-preferred products. By supporting businesses prioritizing community interests and societal contributions, users can actively shape their purchasing power to champion companies that resonate with their beliefs.

The Veebs app is available on the Google Play and iOS stores.
