Thrive Market
Thrive Market is an American e-commerce membership-based retailer offering natural and organic food products. It was founded by Nick Green, Gunnar Lovelace, Kate Mulling, and Sasha Siddhartha. By 2016 they had raised $141 million across three funding rounds following their launch in November 2014.
Described as "Costco meets Whole Foods", Thrive Market's business model is designed to simplify the supply chain by eliminating the markup typically applied by brick-and-mortar grocery stores.
Thrive Market is based on an annual membership model, which allows the company to keep prices low. Thrive Market offers incentives with membership including discounts, gifts, exclusive product collaborations, and samples with orders. For every paid Thrive Market membership, a free membership is donated to a family in need in the United States as part of the company's Thrive Gives program. Students, teachers, veterans, nurses, and first responders are also eligible for free memberships. Thrive Market membership is popular amongst parents.
Thrive Market carries more than 6,900 products from over 800 brands, including organic and non-GMO foods, ethically sourced meat and seafood, nontoxic home and beauty products, organic and biodynamic wine, and items for babies and kids. Thrive also offers around 700 of its own products, available exclusively to members. The company allows users to filter their search results by more than 90 different diets and lifestyle choices. Examples of filters include vegan, paleo, keto, gluten-free, Fair Trade Certified, and Non-GMO Project Verified. As of September 4, 2019, Thrive Market is the first retailer to use the Glyphosate Residue Free certification, created by the Detox Project, a research and certification platform.
In October 2020, Thrive became the first online grocer in the U.S. with B Corp certification from B-Lab.
In January 2023, Thrive Market's Hanover, Pennsylvania-based fulfillment center was awarded certification under the TRUE (Total Resource Use and Efficiency), the third and final fulfillment center to be TRUE certified. Also in 2023, Thrive Market became plastic-neutral and climate-neutral certified. Also in 2023, Thrive Market converted from a C-corporation to a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation. Since 2015, the company has offset 100% of its carbon footprint from shipping and has a no airship policy.
Since 2015, Thrive Market has given away millions of memberships. In 2020, Thrive Market announced its Food Equality Now campaign, which is set to reach $20M by 2030.
Thrive Market was launched in November 2014 to address the geographical and monetary challenges that bar communities from healthy food. Green and Lovelace met via Green's involvement in Launchpad LA. Lovelace grew up on an organic farm in Ojai, California and saw the power of group buying as a way to make healthy food affordable and build community.
