Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Safety Shot, Inc. (SHOT.US) focuses on wellness products, notably its Safety Shot beverage, which claims to lower blood alcohol content. The company's ethical standing is significantly tied to the demonstrated safety and efficacy of this core product; critics point to the need for transparent, scientifically substantiated claims to avoid conflicts with honest business practices. While Safety Shot, Inc. has a Code of Business Conduct, reports suggest a lack of public data on regulatory fines or transparency scores. A court case involving a warrant dispute has also been noted. Furthermore, there's insufficient public information regarding potential animal testing in product development or specific initiatives to address packaging waste inherent to its beverage and wellness lines.
