Each business/brand is assigned one of three colors based on its score in our report: green, yellow or red. The parent company is listed first in each entry, and is linked to its respective page on our online Corporate Equality Index. The parent company's brand-name products, if any, are listed underneath, and its corresponding CEI score is listed on the right. Examples of these entries are below.
