The average American
generates 4.5 pounds
of trash per day.

Much of which
is packaging.

The Soap Dispensary
in Vancouver offers a way
to shop package free.

They first opened
their doors in 2011.

Offering zero waste
household solutions,

with a variety of soaps,
cleaners and bathroom products.

And now they are
expanding next door!

Serving over 150 types
of package free food

like cheese, butter,
yogurt and tofu.

You can even fill up
your almond milk!

There's over 25 sauces,
oils and vinegars on tap

and a selection of healthy
chips, dips and dumplings.

The friendly staff will
take care of your needs.

And if you don't have your
own containers, you can 
pick some up in store.

Owner, Linh selects
natural and
organic products

sourced locally to
support the community.
