We chat with Margaret Taylor and Philippe Choinière about the challenges and opportunities of creating and sustaining a zero waste business in Canada. We’re chatting with these two in April because it’s Earth Month, and we thought there’s no better time to talk about the role of businesses, suppliers, and consumers in helping our society make the shift towards zero waste solutions.
Margaret’s business, Nudemarket, started with delicious peanut butters she makes from scratch, which can be purchased from grocery stores across Alberta. Nudemarket’s mission is to create a less wasteful lifestyle without sacrificing convenience. To do this Margaret introduced a new side to the business, a refilery that focuses on offering alternatives to single use products, so you can continue to stay focused on what matters to you and not be worried about wasting product and packaging.
Philippe’s business, Oneka Elements, is one of the suppliers for Margaret’s refillery. Oneka’s all natural personal care products were created out of a respect for our water sources and the many organisms that help clean and purify it along its way.
