Bansk Group Publishes 2025 Annual Impact Report

Highlights Value Creation Through Firm's "Five Goods" Framework and Measurable Safety, Sustainability and Operational Progress Across Portfolio of Leading Consumer Packaged Good ("CPG") Brands

NEW YORK, June 29, 2026 – Bansk Group ("Bansk"), a consumer-focused private investment firm dedicated to building distinctive consumer brands, today announced the publication of its annual Impact report, detailing the firm's continued progress in integrating its "Five Goods" framework across its portfolio.

The report highlights measurable progress across Bansk's portfolio companies, including advancements in product safety, greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions management, packaging optimization, supply chain resiliency and workplace safety. It also outlines how portfolio companies are increasingly working to embed responsible business practices into product development and operations to better align with evolving consumer expectations.

"As a leader in the CPG space, our focus has always been on building distinctive brands that better meet consumer needs and stand the test of time," said Bart Becht, Senior Partner and Chairman of Bansk. "Today, a growing number of consumers are looking for safer and healthier products that have a lower impact on the planet and are developed by companies that treat their workers well and give back to their communities. Through our Five Goods framework, we believe that responsible business initiatives can deliver on the key credentials consumers look for while building consumer loyalty - a win-win for consumers and businesses. We consider that this year's report demonstrates how our approach is driving tangible outcomes and value creation."

Bansk's Five Goods framework is customized for the CPG industry and aligned with evolving consumer expectations. The framework is applied throughout the investment lifecycle, from evaluating acquisitions and establishing in-depth responsible investment audits to set goals and monitor portfolio-level progress. The 2025 Impact Report outlines a number of case studies of how the Five Goods framework has supported measurable outcomes across Bansk's portfolio companies. Highlights from the 2025 report include:

Woodstream embedded the 'safer products screening' process in its product development. Today, 94% of its products contain ingredients of "no concern," up from 86% in 2022, while ~92% of plastics have been removed from packaging, leading to ~$6 million in cost savings.
amika applied a data-driven approach to logistics and distribution, optimizing shipping modes and load efficiency across an expanding footprint. This enabled the brand to support over 18% in sales growth, while keeping GHG emissions relatively flat and saving costs.
amika also deployed a nature-based approach to supply chain transparency by incorporating regenerative supply chain practices for key ingredients - reducing GHG emissions and environmental impact while strengthening consumer trust through more responsible sourcing.
Foundation Wellness implemented a disciplined, company-wide approach to workplace safety and employee engagement, maintaining a near-zero injury rate and achieving 2,200 days without time lost to injuries, resulting in stronger employee retention and lower insurance-related costs.

"At Bansk, we focus on products that solve for consumer needs while also delivering measurable outcomes that matter to consumers, employees and retail partners," said Mastak Pal Kaur, Director of Responsible Investment at Bansk. "As we grow our portfolio, we continue to see opportunities to apply responsible operational best practices across companies in ways that we believe better deliver on consumer needs, strengthen brands and support long-term business growth."
