All verified businesses agree to uphold the Owner Bureau Code of Ethics — a set of principles designed to promote integrity, fairness, and accountability in business operations.
This ethical framework serves as a baseline for all businesses in our network and reflects our commitment to supporting Main Street businesses that operate with integrity.
Note: While verification requires agreement to these principles, accreditation requires demonstrated implementation and ongoing compliance with more rigorous operational standards.
