In this video, we tour a package-free grocery store to see how it works! Stores like this are popping up all over the place, but it can be a bit intimidating to know what to expect and to figure out how to take home items without any packaging. Anna from bare market shows us all the sections in the store while also doing a sample grocery shop along the way.

bare market is a one-stop shop for package-free goods and grocery in Toronto, Canada. They have low-waste personal care products like hair brushes, dish brushes, and menstrual and shaving products. They have bulk shampoo, conditioner, lotion and body wash, cleaners, DIY ingredients, and more. On the food side, they have everything from fresh produce, frozen foods, bulk grains, nuts, pastas and snacks, as well as a closed-loop cafe.

Shopping at stores like this makes it easier to live a low waste lifestyle and to take small steps towards zero waste and a more sustainable future with less plastic garbage polluting the earth 🙂

This is great. I think we can all do our part. I use tote bags now and no plastic or at least less plastic bags. I no longer buy any bottle water. Companies should shrink the size of the packaging. You buy a box of rice and the box is bigger than the bag inside. Eliminate the inside bag and reduce the box size.

amazing you have the savoury and sweet snacks in bulk

Katriel Israel says:

Ah I see you support the p e do flag

Catherine Mirakian says:

This way of shopping is so great! I hope it will become mainstream. I visited my daughter in France and she found a store similar to this run by a young couple. They provide the containers (you return them when picking up your next order) to be washed and sterilized. You can also place an order online and pick up your order (sometimes on the same day!) We need more stores like this to encourage everyone to reduce the packaging waste from their homes.

this concept is so cool. i wish it was everywhere!

Kenn Yapsangco says:

Do they sell meats and fish? Interesting how to sell those package free

Anna Noe says:

Love it! Nothing drives me crazy like buying shampoo in plastic bottles or laundry soap… I would give anything to purchase shampoo and conditioner like this!

TxSpaceMOM says:

I live in the US. Can you recommend a body soap comparable to Dove Sensitive? I can never find anything that does not break me out. Love this whole thing!

Minimal Jello says:

I am a low waste channel. And this seems so peaceful. Hopefully I can see this around me one day.

Taoxlegion says:

3 Dollars for an ounce!!! How are people paying that?

Twiggy Goodfellow says:

Love this!! I want every store like this in the future!

Sawyer's Girl says:

I fell like the bread should be in a container of paper wrapped. Too many people breathing and touching it.

fotini av says:

so many ideas, so many questions..but also so inspiring!

Bostonclassics1 says:

So impressed and hope to see this all over.

Sundalong Patpat says:

Living in a third world nation, I'm realizing that our local market can pretty much do this already. They buy in bulk and resell them in retail only they offer to put them in plastic bags.

Theoretically, I can go there, make them weigh my containers in first then put in my desired amount.

Blake House says:

Could you film more videos about zero waste/zero waste grocery stores? Thanks!
