Whole Foods Market, Inc. (WFM), LeapFrog Enterprises, Inc. (LF), Google Inc (GOOG): These Companies Really Do Want to Make Your Life Better

Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) — “To organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”
The world’s largest search engine needs little introduction, and, like Whole Foods Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:WFM), maintains its own philosophy with 10 beliefs to guide its actions. Perhaps most pertinent to this conversation, however, are “Focus on the user and all else will follow” and “You can make money without doing evil.”

In the end, you’d be hard-pressed to find someone whose life hasn’t been affected for the better by Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG), and I don’t think it’s any coincidence that Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) stock is currently trading near all-time highs.

Sodastream International Ltd (NASDAQ:SODA): “To revolutionize the beverage industry by providing a better alternative and environmentally friendly way for consumers to prepare their own refreshing carbonated beverages.”

Finally, at-home carbonation specialist Sodastream International Ltd (NASDAQ:SODA) certainly hasn’t been shy in calling out beverage titans like The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) and PepsiCo, Inc. (NYSE:PEP), all while pitching its own product as a more affordable, convenient, and environmentally friendly option for consumers.

Luckily for Sodastream International Ltd (NASDAQ:SODA) investors, those consumers are catching on, as the company managed to boost first-quarter revenue 34% from last year while adjusted earnings grew 24%. Better yet, last week SodaStream outlined plans to nearly double annual revenue to $1 billion by 2016, helping push the stock to a new 52-week high.
