NOTE: This episode was recorded before COVID-19.

In this episode I hung out with with Derrick Chao, the founder of Filljoy: whose mission is to reduce single-use plastic, packaging and product waste in retail environments. They are dedicated to supporting grocery stores and zero waste refill shops achieve their sustainability goals. Filljoy’s innovative technology solution makes it easier for customers to say no to single-use plastic and reduce waste by buying only what they need. They've designed an ecosystem where customers can shop conveniently with their own reusable containers, their kiosk and three-step tap & weigh system makes it quick and fun to shop and pay - without waste, hassle or excess packaging.

We talk about how he left his job from Google after being there for 5 years, how he built Filljoy, and the future of sustainable shopping.
