Job Description
Description : Loop Overview
Loop is a global platform for the reuse of returnable packaging. It's the very first ecosystem to bring together major international brands and retailers to replace as much of the disposable packaging used on our everyday products as possible with reusable, returnable packaging.
How does it work? Consumers buy their returnable product in-store. They consume it, and then return the empty packaging to the store for a refund of the deposit. Rather than being thrown away, empty packaging is recovered and cleaned, before being returned to suppliers to be refilled and put back on the market.
In France, the Loop platform is present in over 250 Carrefour, Monoprix and Coopérative U stores, and we will soon be rolling out the concept to other chains.
If you'd like to join a growing team in a high-impact start-up and play an active role in the development of reuse, contact us!
