The problem
People want to cut plastic, but refill shops are few and far away, so they buy packaged products anyway.
The solution
A route-based refill van that parks in each neighbourhood weekly, with pre-orders on WhatsApp and loyalty discounts for regulars.
Target customers
Eco-minded households in European cities and Indian metros.
Business model
Product margins of 30–40%; franchise new routes to local operators.
Competition and why this idea
Refill shops need people to travel. The van comes to them on a schedule.
