How to Invest in Organic Foods on a Global Scale
For many who enjoyed the sense of social impact from buying shares of Whole Foods Market, the company's acquisition by Amazon.com this year eliminated a great option for directly supporting the organic and natural foods movement.
If you're one of the many looking for new ideas in this space, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) launched last year allows investors to participate in companies that manufacture or facilitate the trade of both organic foods and personal care products. The Organics ETF (NASDAQ: ORG), managed by Janus Henderson Investors, describes itself as follows:
The Organics ETF seeks exposure to companies globally that can capitalize on our increasing desire for naturally derived food and personal care items, including: companies which service, produce, distribute, market or sell organic food, beverage, cosmetics, supplements, or packaging.
