Co-Founder (Mobile Refill Division)
CurrentOur mission is to help corporations reduce single-use plastic. Our founder Ashley Merz has been pioneering "zero waste lifestyle" for over a decade though her retail/eCommerce shops https://thesourcezero.com/. I am expanding the mobile refill model to B2B2C though a new distribution channel, offering employees of socially-minded corporations soap and detergent refill for home use.Think refillable water bottles- it's exactly like that, but for soap!Each employee uses an average of 40-80 single use plastic bottles (soap and personal care related) annually. The manufacturing of plastic, and its disposal, created more than 850 million metric tons of greenhouse gas in 2019 alone. We're disrupting reliance on the highest global polluters (Unilever, P&G and Colgate-Palmolive) that contribute to climate change.How it works:We send a mobile refill truck to your campus monthly, to dispense the most common eco friendly home soaps (hand, dish, detergent) and hand sanitizer. Employees drop off their reusable containers (we also have containers available) and pick up the filled bottles at their convenience: -The refill initiative is a convenient perk, providing employees the choice to make an individual environmental impact, while contributing to collective corporate change. -This promotes sustainable hygiene practices which are crucial in safely integrating employees back onsite.-Your corporation takes credit and measure the number of plastic bottles removed from the waste stream. We provide data back to the corporation on the specific number of plastic bottles saved, so they can add it to their annual report.We're hiring health and wellness advocates across the country- Please reach out if you would like to manage a territory.
