Quintain Marketing Joins the Annapolis Sustainable Business Alliance
Annapolis, MD April 15, 2009-
Quintain Marketing announced today that it has become a member of the Annapolis Sustainable Business Alliance (ASBA). In an effort to promote the local economy, ASBA encourages local individuals and businesses to “think local” and buy from local, independently-owned businesses. The group also educates the public on the importance of supporting the local economy, and encourages businesses and consumers to be environmentally sustainable and socially responsible.
“We thought that this was a really important cause for Quintain to get behind,” said owner and CEO Kathleen Booth, “Since we are a locally owned and operated business, we understand the impact of local support. We’ve also made sustainability a cornerstone of our business – we introduced a Sustainability Policy in 2008 and have also been purchasing 100% wind power for our energy needs – so the ASBA’s focus on environmental sustainability was a good fit for us.”
