We are excited to have our first podcast showcase a local corner store in the North Vancouver Blueridge community called United Strangers. United Strangers is a newly opened community corner store that aims to provide ethical and sustainable products, including coffee, groceries, and clothing, to the local community. All while during a worldwide pandemic, Christine and Joe were able to convert an old corner store into a brand new coffee shop and corner store to bring together the community. This episode, we have one of the owners of United Strangers, Christine Reid, here to share her experience and knowledge about sustainability and its role in her business. You can find United Strangers on Instagram @unitedstrangerscoffee and visit their website https://www.unitedstrangerscoffee.com/ for more information.
