GMO Practices

Manufacturer Communication

Green PolkaDot Box's Vendor Acquisition Manager requires organic certification or GMO-free verification letters from manufacturers before purchasing products. Green PolkaDot Box rejects many products offered by manufacturers that do not meet these standards. Green PolkaDot Box's nutritionist, who reviews vendors‘ product ingredients, believes vendor knowledge about GMOs is lacking and that it’s essential to provide vendors basic education. Her concerns also extend to consumers. She believes health doesn't just happen, you have to plan for it, and a critical part of that planning is education.

Product Removal Process

Green PolkaDot Box's nutritionist is a GMO expert. She goes over manufacturers’ products ingredient by ingredient to identify any questionable ingredients. Many products offered by manufacturers don't meet the company's stringent standards and are rejected.

Labeling

None of Green PolkaDot Box's products contain GMO ingredients so they do not label products as GMO-free.

    Thank you for the information! I love Green PolkaDot Box. They are doing some incredible things, and their prices are amazing.

    It is good to see a company committed to bring Non-GMO foods to market at such incredible deals.
