GreenOrder

GreenOrder was a management consulting group specialising in environmental sustainability. It was established in 2000 by Andrew L. Shapiro.[1]

History

Shapiro got the idea for GreenOrder from the Wetlands Preserve, an environmentally friendly nightclub in the TriBeCa area of New York City.[2]

GreenOrder was acquired by LRN in 2008 and operated as a wholly owned subsidiary.[3] In 2012, GreenOrder was merged with Cleantech Group LLC.[4] GreenOrder no longer exists as a separate entity.

Notable work

GreenOrder worked with companies like Polo Ralph Lauren and General Motors.[5] It worked with Saudi Basic Industries (SABIC) in making investments in green technologies and products.[6]

In 2011, GreenOrder Partner Truman Semans took part in delivering the keynote addresses at the World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi.[7]

GreenOrder served as a principal strategic adviser on General Electric's ecomagination portfolio, including involvement in the ecomagination Product Review process.[8] [9]
