How could MOMA rate higher on our Ethical Vegan Milk Ratings Tables? 

MOMA is eligible for Ethical Accreditation due to its high score. This Ethical Score is determined through three main research criteria and other sub-criteria: the Environment, Animals, and People within a company and how much the brand considers these in its business practices.

Ethical Accreditation can be used by a brand to boost customer trust and also serves as a certification for businesses to demonstrate that they operate to an ethical standard. MOMA could improve its ethical rating score further by clarifying if its products are certified-Organic, and if not, that MOMA is working toward offering Organic products.
