The Story
Frederique first came up with the idea of The Sustainable sourcing company when trying to start her own organic and vegan smoothie brand.
Concerned about the bad environmental impact of packaging on our health and our planet and frustrated with the difficulty in finding and sourcing sustainable packaging products for her smoothie brand, she felt there had to be a better and easier way.
United by their wish to improve people’s lives and make the planet a better place, the team set about re-defining the process.
The concept was obvious: Create one platform, bring together all UK and International suppliers and manufacturers of sustainable packaging products and provide high-quality sustainable packaging solutions to all businesses, everywhere, at a fair price.
The Mission
At The Sustainable sourcing company, our mission is to make it easy for small businesses to find and source sustainable packaging products at anytime, anywhere.
But also empower small businesses around the world with sustainable packaging solutions that consider the complete lifecycle impact of a product from raw material sourcing, right through to end-of-life disposal; in order to improve our lives and make our planet a better place for us and the future generations. Build a sustainable world, powered by plants and plastic free.
We do this by giving our suppliers the tools necessary to reach a global audience for their products, and by helping buyers find suppliers easily and buy sustainable products quickly and efficiently.
