Green Future Box

In this Meet the Maker interview we're pleased to introduce founder Jon MacAllan from Green Future Box. Jon's passion for ethical living lead him to take action and launch Green Future Box to help inspire less-plastic and eco-friendly living. We're delighted that Jon can share more information about his box and the story behind it.

This is part of uOpen’s ‘Meet The Maker’ interview series - your exclusive opportunity to get to know the real people and personalities behind the subscription boxes you know and love, and the ones you will soon come to!

This week we take a closer look inside the Green Future Box. Each month subscribers receive a beautifully curated package of eco-friendly, plastic-free products such as bathroom or kitchen items, daily use products, alternative sweet treats and much more.

The idea is to conveniently introduce plastic-free alternatives to everyday products into your home to help live a more ethical and sustainable life. Here's founder Jon MacAllan to tell us more about it :
