Emily created Jarr (with two r's for Reduce and Reuse) to make package-free shopping easier for busy folks, like her, who were challenged by limited time and wanted to reduce their impact on the world around them. As a busy working mom with an eco heart, Emily Sproule found herself torn between her full life of work/family and dedicating the incredible time it takes to shop zero waste. With the ongoing news about garbage in the oceans and Canadian recycling being shipped to developing countries, she felt like she had to do something. Her experience in Marketing, E-Commerce, Sales and as a General Manager, proved to be the perfect combination to offer delivery as a solution to simplify package-free living for busy people with eco hearts.Jarr was launched during the first lock down of the COVID-19 pandemic, while juggling kids at home. The need for package-free grocery delivery in a time where disposable waste increased immensely felt especially important and it didn't take long to build an amazing community of customers and supporters.
