WHAT IS JARAJAR?
Jarajar is a cool new innovative business in Cape Town where you can shop online to order a whole bunch of food products such as nuts, grains, pasta or rice, spices; you know, all the stuff you use in your kitchen!
The beauty of it, is that all your products get delivered (actually ‘Green delivered‘) to you in glass jars that you rent from Jarajar. This way there is minimal waste and no packaging whatsoever to deal with!
“Rent a wonderful, recyclable, eco-friendly glass jar. Empty jar? Return it and get your deposit back.”
If you’re thinking about the environment, glass is the better choice. Let’s collectively reduce our carbon footprint by cultivating ethical consumption and recycling behaviors.
“The goal is for glass to be produced, used, recovered, cleaned and re-used again. This will be the smallest possible impact on the environment.”
GREEN DELIVERY
“In short, green delivery is the most productive way of transporting goods. Either cluster deliveries all together until the delivery truck is full before sending it out for delivery, or consider using a carbon-efficient transport such as bicycles, e-bikes or electric vehicles.”
The results of a questionnaire they did showed that 88% of customers don’t mind waiting longer for a delivery if it meant that there were less emissions and congestion as a result efficient delivery method.
Delivery is free if you send over R400 (on products) or more and they do offer Green Delivery for free.
