Just Add Water: The Single Use Ain't Sexy Story | #171

In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Josh Howard, Founder of Single Use Ain’t Sexy, yes that’s the brand name, Single Use Ain’t Sexy. He has come up with a unique product which is a massive hack to save time, save money and hopefully save the planet! He calls it the Berocca for hand soap - and it’s got nothing to do with consuming it when you’re hungover, I’ll leave him to explain. In this chat we cover so much ground. From how Single Use Ain’t Sexy’s impact is made not only by reducing over 100,000 plastic bottles from circulation, but also by removing water from the supply chain. We also discuss how it took 93 discussions with suppliers before he cracked the formula, how Josh raised their initial funding from their own supporters and why he thinks Australians are a bit sick of subscriptions! Links from the episode:Single Use Ain’t SexyFlora & Fauna Who Gives A CrapThankyouMemo BottleThe Great WrapL’OrealSignet and Paperlust (sponsored)Shopify Plus and Mustard Made (sponsored)Questions answered:What are your tips for making a sustainable product successful?How is your fulfilment organised?How will you be expanding your range in the future?SignetShopify PlusAbout your co-host: Josh Howard from Single Use Ain’t SexyJosh Howard is the CEO & Founder of viral sustainability brand Single Use Ain’t Sexy.
