Welcome to Episode 28 of Sustainable Ecommerce Podcast!

When it comes to single use plastics, one of the key areas of focus for government intervention over the past few years has been shopping and produce bags.

Of course, retailers and supermarkets have been spun off in all different direction over the past decade, from biodegradable to re-usable but through it all one brand has been helping to change the game by providing collapsible produce bags designed to keep on you for whenever you need them.  My guest today is Hayley Clarke, Managing Director of WA brand ONYA. They have been leading the charge against single use plastics since 2004! 

Today the brand provides re-usable shopping bags, produce bags & beverage containers as well as a range of compostable waste bags.    They were one of the earliest brands in Australia to gain B Corp certification, have become a 1% for the Planet member and ensure their workforce is climate positive through Ecologie.  

It’s a rare privilege indeed to get to share in the stories from inside a sustainable brand that’s been running for over 20 years and I hope you enjoy learning from Hayley as much as I did.
