Kelly Vlahakis-Hanks – Is the President and CEO of ECOS. A family owned non-toxic, plant-based cleaning company. Kelly continues to raise the bar and leads by example of how a company can expand without compromise with the help of innovation, vision and know-how. Kelly is someone I very much admire and ECOS is proof that you can choose to care about people, the planet and still profit. ECOS was one of the first brands that led me down the path of my green-living lifestyle. Changing my cleaning products, especially my laundry, was a game-changer. It opened my eyes to all the brands I was familiar with that use toxic chemicals and prompted me to make changes in all areas. ECOS has set a benchmark from their products, to their manufacturing, and all their certifications. My hope is for more companies to follow in these inspired footsteps.
