From my family to yours
Hi I'm Faye, welcome to Zero Waste Stores!
We are a small, independent, solo female-led, family-run business committed to providing zero-waste, organic, and fair-trade products for our local community through our shops and online nationwide.
As a British / South American family, we've organically shaped our store and its ethos by merging cultures. We're proud to be the first zero waste store that caters to food, lifestyle, and home interiors. This unique approach allows us to continuously strive to match the prices of multimillion-pound supermarkets, making package-free living affordable.
(Me and my babies, you'll see them in store a lot)
Since opening in 2019, we have grown from a one-store operation to two stores in Exeter and Exmouth. We have also expanded our online offering and sell ethical and environmentally friendly products nationwide.
At Zero Waste Stores we strive to..
Use only recyclable materials
Our entire store, from signage to interiors, has been designed and created from landfill-saved and vintage items. The interior design of our stores is created by merging recycled, sustainable, and landfill-saved materials designed to last a lifetime—a lifetime out of landfill.
Pay our workers and creators a fair wage
At Zero, equality for workers is imperative to us. We pay a world salary regardless of location, from artists in Chile to creators in Bogota and our staff in the UK. This is transparent and fair.
Ensure our stores are accessible
We have designed the store around accessibility. The space is large enough for wheelchairs and numerous strollers.
Showcase and support local artists
We support makers and creators from South America and work with local artists and makers to sell and showcase their work.
Come in & say hi - we can't wait to meet you!
