Ready to build a business that puts people, planet, and profit on equal footing?
In this episode of The Business Ownership Podcast I interviewed Jonathan Orpin. Jonathan is a lifelong entrepreneur and sustainability advocate who founded not one but two successful eco-friendly companies in the design + build and manufacturing industries, New Energy Works & Pioneer Millworks. With over 30 years’ experience operating on the triple bottom line—a simple belief that people, planet, and profit work together to ensure a better future, his philosophy on sustainability, business management, and giving back are reflected in everything he and the companies he founded do.
In 2022 Jonathan sold both companies to his employees and took on the title of CEO as they continue as an ESOP, or Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Utilizing an ESOP as a means of succession planning ensures that the sustainable and forward-thinking principles the companies were founded on are continued for years to come not by a single owner or investment group, but by the craftspeople who make up the company themselves. “I’ve long said what makes the ESOP a good fit for us is
that our folks have always had an ownership mentality,” says Jonathan Orpin. “I’m excited to make this transition in a democratized workplace with my coworkers, which has long been a goal of mine, but especially now as employees are increasingly seeking greater equity in the workforce.”
