On this week of Kansas City Confidential, Sari is joined by Anne Desort, owner SOAP Refill Station, a bulk home and body care shop where customers can bring their own containers from home to refill safe cleaning products over and over -  instead of buying a new single use container each purchase. Their mission is simple, to reduce single use waste. In 4 years, between their two locations in Springfield and Kansas City Missouri they have kept over 100,000 containers out of the trash, recycling centers, and waterways. Anne loves small business and the community that a good one fosters SOAP loves being a part of their customer's routines and helping to support them through their own eco-journey.

Alongside her partner Adam, they started our own soap and detergent manufacturing company named HOUSEbrand (housebrandclean.com) to help them keep shelves stocked with responsible soaps and detergents. This way they are able to keep product prices as low as possible to encourage the refill model for everyone as not only the best choice for your planet but also for your pocket book.
