CORE VALUES

“How much impact can one little barbershop have in this world?”

- the question i’ve been asking myself since benchmark’s conceptual phase in 2016

giving back

Since 2017, Benchmark has given 1% annually from all barber services and 100% of the revenue from Nepalese Necklaces to support EHI. These yearly contributions aid education, school supplies, hygiene needs and nutrition programs to Dalit Caste children living in the slums in Chitwan, Nepal. Our 2022 contribution is funding a literacy class for mothers whose children are in the program. Your haircuts make a difference.

INTEGRITY

Keeping our word equates to trust and responsibility. Using our words for good can inspire, empower and lift others. We believe in doing the right or helpful thing even when no one else knows or is watching. Being helpful means stepping outside our normal duties.

SUSTAINABILITY

We strive to minimize our impact on the environment through recycling and minimizing plastic usage. We use and sell products from brands who demonstrate responsible harvesting, use high quality ingredients, strive to cut back on waste and who employ green manufacturing practices whenever possible.

CREATIVITY

Benchmark embraces creativity in hair, lifestyle, artistic pursuits, business development, fashion, product design and manufacturing processes.

ADVENTURE

Benchmark values an active outdoor lifestyle. We encourage recreation, travel, trying new activities and training for athletic pursuits that push human performance. We celebrate and encourage our team, clients and community to get outside their comfort zone and to discover their potential.
