Shop kind: Nada

If you’re tired of buying apples encased in plastic, individually-packed bags of rice and nuts which should be naked, it may be time to find your nearest zero-waste shop. Lauren Welch was on a mission to reduce her personal impact, but found it near impossible, so she opened up NADA, her very own zero-waste store. Lauren gave us the low-down on how NADA is helping Leicester cut back.

NADA is Leicester’s first zero-waste store – it’s independent, family-run and all products are ethically and, where possible, locally sourced. We sell dry foods including rice, pasta, lentils, grains and pulses, dried fruit, nuts and seeds, as well as baking essentials like cereal, tea, coffee and oils. These can be purchased in any quantity without packaging – customers are encouraged to bring their own containers and we charge by weight. We also sell household cleaning products and bathroom essentials, including bamboo toothbrushes and plant-based dental floss, as well as lifestyle products to reduce the need for single-use plastic – such as water bottles, coffee cups, straws, wax wraps and menstrual pads.
