Plastic Free Shop

Plastic Free Shop Cleaning up the ocean one stylish purchase at a time. It all started with a seemingly simple bet between my wife and I - the first one to use plastic loses!

It was the single most inconvenient experience of our lives... but if we couldn't do it, how could we expect anyone else to? Using our experience in retail, years of research and activist networks we set about creating a plastic-free business with a clear objective - make it easy for people to use less plastic! But, there was still so much plastic pollution out there and only a handful of dedicate

d people tackling the issue. So, we took our business one step further. 100% profits will go towards solutions for the clean-up efforts. A double-edged sword tackling the consumption and the clean-up. Apart from the profits going to the clean-up we operate like any other business and hope to prove that a company can succeed when it puts the health of its customers, the planet and all it's inhabitants first! We can only achieve this with your help! This is a company for the world and can only become a reality with the help of people who care about a better tomorrow.
