Plush product of integrity and sustainability

Over The Years

Since first starting our journey of what sustainability truly means within a business in 2018, we have met many amazing people and have learned more then we possibly could of imagined over the last 6 years. With hot words like Carbon Footprint, Green Technology, and Eco Business, it’s easy to get lost in the rapids of what running a green business actually means. Then you add the dynamic of being a small business owner or corporate day to day work flows, who really has the time to make change and learn how to be a sustainable business? This is a very realistic question for many and one that we battle ourselves with supply chain crisis and inflation in a post covid world.

It is with these reasons in mind why we are making a conscious effort to share what we’ve learned since 2017 and how we have modified our business to become a more environmentally conscious business. Our hope is to assist in making sense of the green washing mis-information out there by laying out some of the fundamental changes we’ve made within The Bear Factory through our education of sustainable business practices.

Our mission

As a business is to create lasting memories while also preserving our planet. This is accomplished by creating the highest quality plush products made of sustainable materials whenever possible. We hope this inspires you to make changes within your own business. The upside is by being apart of The Bear Factory Community, you have already taken a first step towards being green business by offering a plush product of integrity that is sustainably focused.

We thank you for your partnership and shared passion for sustainability.
