Sustainable e-commerce start-up Olive now ships appeal products, in addition to apparel

Previously this year, a startup called Olive introduced its new shopping website and app with the goal of making e-commerce more efficient, hassle-free, and sustainable by using a way for consumers to aggregate their orders from throughout retailers into single deliveries that show up in multiple-use packaging, not cardboard. If products need to be returned, those […] Otherwise, Olive will return to select them up. Olive creator Nate Faust states he was inspired to construct the business after recognizing how little interest there was from larger e-commerce players in addressing some of the inconveniences and inefficiencies in the market. Olive addresses the return concern by enabling customers to simply put their unwanted products back in Olive’s product packaging then leave them on their doorstep or with the structure’s doorman for return. Olive today partners with merchants who ship bundles to its own west coast and east coast warehouses, where they repackage them into the reusable containers to provide to consumers.
