Always order, preferably by June

Orders without your contact details are always possible. Most of the items are in stock and will be delivered in a few days. Larger orders should be placed in May and June 2023. This way, missing items can be produced in July and delivered in August.

The advantages of joint purchasing:

Credibility: All materials meet the criteria of ECG throughout the entire supply chain. We select suppliers who combine a high ECG-balance sum with favourable prices.
Low effort: We print your contact details on some items.
Low price: If many people participate, the bulk prices are up to 60% cheaper than individual orders - since 2018, we have achieved this saving with 80,000 "general flyers". But because ECG values have their price, we distinguish ourselves from cheap suppliers.

The companies cover their costs without subsidies from the ECG movement and without profit. They provide financial transparency to ECG bodies (EMT) in the following year.
We were able to reduce our shipping costs to 4,90 € within Germany and 8,90 € to Austria, other countries on request.

We offer the products only in German. The following list is no longer up to date. The ECG groups from other language regions are welcome to contact us if they would like to translate templates or order items. Please contact bendix.balke@ecogood.org.

Money doesn't work, people work. Ethical investments and alternative banks invest in social, sustainable ideas and projects. The alternative economic model Economy for the Common Good is committed to making money the means instead of the goal of economic activity. www.ecogood.org 2.) Cooperation is stronger than competition. Companies are stronger if they can rely on each other. This releases energy. No one should work too much or too little because the competition is breathing down his neck. The alternative economic model Economy for the Common Good has thought about how economies in cooperation can succeed. www.ecogood.org 3.) Organic is cheaper. Of course organic is more expensive. On the price tag in the shop. Because we pay the true costs of conventional agriculture with poisoned soils, bee deaths and climate change. The economic model of Economy for the Common Good wants a system of taxes and levies that imposes common good costs on those who cause them. Then organic is cheaper. www.ecogood.org 4.) If superiors listen to their team, everyone feels better. All have blind spots. Also superiors! Employees want to contribute ideas to make their company more sustainable and successful. The Economy for the Common Good is an alternative economic model that makes co-decision just as strong as solidarity and sustainability. www.ecogood.org	100 pieces 12 € (25 pieces per motif)	Can be ordered in German at any time.

Award Criteria

Contracts shall be awarded on the basis of the following three criteria:

Award Criterion	Comment Price
Price	In general: The cheaper the order, the more likely it is to be received.
ECG Assessment	In general, the higher the ECG rating, the more likely it is that orders will be received. Deductions for expired public interest balance sheets If no company with a ECG balance sheet offers this product, we compare which supplier* corresponds most closely to the ECG values according to available information.
Regionality	If possible, the comparison of suppliers* takes place within Germany. Since some products are manufactured exclusively in neighbouring countries (pencils in Denmark and organic buttons in Austria), we have nevertheless taken them in. Separate production of an article at different locations is not reasonable, because the bundling effect does not take effect and the printing costs increase. You get the goods from a central distribution to avoid packing and transporting goods unnecessarily.
