Startup of the Week - This GOOD Box
by Startacus Admin
Try as we might, sometimes making ethical choices can be a tad difficult - whether it’s due to constraints on our time or simply issues tracking down the right types of products.
However, thanks to our latest Startup of the Week, choosing ethical products has just become a whole lot easier.
This GOOD Box is an innovative new subscription startup which is on a mission to help us all live a little more ethically.
Every month the GOOD Box will contain a range of products which are good to both people and the planet.
Based around a core ‘fun’ theme. each box will typically contain the following:
-
1 delicious snack (matched to your own dietary needs or requirements)
-
1 natural health and beauty product
-
1 piece of stationery
-
1-3 gorgeous items - such as homeware, accessories or jewellery
At the moment the boxes are aimed at women although the hope is that there will be a men’s version and an option for children in the not too distant future.
Subscriptions can be purchased on a monthly basis or on a three or six month basis if you’d like to buy someone a gift!
Whilst there are a lot of subscription service startups out there at the moment, the quirky (and ethical) nature of this one are bound to help it stand out.
This GOOD Box folk - we’re loving your work…
