  • How to price a supermarket refill station (with Cameron Cooper)
    Dec 31 2021
    In this episode, we're doing something new. One of our listeners, Cameron Cooper of Coopers Refillery, an entrepreneur in the zero waste space, has submitted a very interesting business development question. We set out to answer the question; how to adequately price a supermarket refill station. Due to the limited competition, as of now, this is a bit tricky. Together with the experts on zero waste, circular economy and business development: Fanny Näslund of Vågen Zero Waste Stores, Verena Kassar of Das Gramm Zero Waste Stores and Maira Babri of Örebro University, Evelina and Malin share some key perspectives and actions to help out. Would you like to submit a zero waste question to the show - business or otherwise? Shoot us a DM over at Love Zero Waste on Instagram, or email us at hello@lovezerowaste.biz.
