Working as a marine biologist opened Brianne Miller's eyes to the link between our food system and the health of the ocean. Now Brianne is the Founder and CEO of Nada, a package-free grocery store in Vancouver, BC that is reducing food and packaging waste, while also creating a just, sustainable food system.
"We were able to learn what containers are people bringing, where are they coming from, what kind of products do they want to see, how price sensitive are they… We used all of that information to go directly into the design.”
