DeliverZero on In Good Hands

Background

Single-use plastics are a huge problem in food delivery. And as much as we’d like to be better, the reality is: people aren’t going to stop ordering takeout.

Solution

Enter DeliverZero - an online platform that lets customers order from restaurants that offer reusable containers, then return them to the delivery person the next time they order.

DeliverZero cofounders Adam Farbiarz and Lauren Sweeney join us on this week’s episode to explore:

  • The big eureka moment

  • Finding their first restaurants and consumers

  • Reintegrating reusables back with their partner restaurants

  • Trends in food delivery
