Saffron Road Makes History: Earns Higher B Corp Score (92.5) and Remains the Only Halal Certified B Corp Food Brand in the United States

[Stamford, CT – October 23, 2025] – Saffron Road®, the better-for-you world cuisine brand, has been recertified as a Certified B Corporation™ with a higher score of 92.5, underscoring its leadership in purpose-driven business. With this milestone, Saffron Road remains the first and only Halal Certified B Corp food brand in the United States—a distinction that sets a new benchmark for integrity and impact in the food industry.

This achievement comes as Saffron Road introduces a major renovation of its core entrée line, including 50% to 100% more chicken or lamb in all respective entrées, the removal of seed oils in favor of healthier fats in core SKUs, and the introduction of compostable trays later this year, further advancing the brand’s sustainable mission as a Certified B Corp. 

“Very few companies make the cut as a B Corp™” said Adnan Durrani, Founder & CEO of Saffron Road. “To be recertified at an even higher level is profoundly uplifting. It validates what we’ve always stood for: we don’t just sell food; we sell values for a value. That’s the heart of our Journey to Better®.”

B Corp Certification is among the most rigorous standards in business, measuring everything from a company’s environmental stewardship to how it treats its people. By raising its score, Saffron Road proves that mission-driven brands can scale without sacrificing soul—joining the ranks of purpose-led pioneers like Patagonia, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, and Once Upon a Farm.

Saffron Road’s higher score reflects measurable progress across sustainable sourcing, worker empowerment, and community impact. It’s not just a renewal—it’s a recommitment to raising the bar.

“Our mission has always been about more than meals, but about Purpose. After all, Saffron Road’s Core Values are: Purpose Beyond Profit, Passion for Food and Culture, Driven to Discover, Grit and Perseverance, and We Win Together” added Durrani. “This recertification is proof that doing the right thing is not only possible, but impactful. We’re humbled to carry this banner as the country’s only Halal Certified B Corp food brand. Onward and upward on our Journey to Better.”

Today, Saffron Road joins over 10,000 B Corps across 102 countries and 164 industries redefining success in business by serving people, communities, and the planet.
