Sustainable packaging startup - looking for contacts

Hey warriors of the planet! I'm in the process of starting up a company that provides biodegradable packaging made from mushroom fibers. Still in early stages, but the prototypes are looking promising. Could use some networking help - anyone got contacts in the e-commerce or logistics world focused on sustainability? Gotta save the world, one package at a time!

Have you tried pitching at startup incubators or green business competitions? I know some that offer networking events specifically for sustainable solutions. Your idea might be a hit, not to mention you could snag some funding. Also, check out the Sustainable Packaging Coalition. Could be a great resource for you.

Whoa, that sounds so futuristic! No idea how to help, but I do shop online a ton. Would love to see my next gadget wrapped in mushroom stuff. It's like sci-fi but real? Wow.

I’m impressed with the mushroom approach. Been in the startup game for a while and have a few contacts that might be up your alley. Drop me a DM and let’s see if we can't spark a sustainability revolution together – or at least get some prototypes in the right hands.

Mushroom packaging?? What's next, bubble wrap made of lettuce? Lol, good luck getting fungi to your doorstep instead of actual products.

Super interesting product! Have you tried reaching out to e-commerce stores that specialize in sustainable goods? They might be interested in partnering up since they’re all about reducing waste.

Yes! We need more eco-friendly options out there. I don't know exactly who you should talk to, but I follow this blogger who's really big into sustainable e-commerce. Try checking out Sustainable Sue's blog, she's always interviewing startup founders and might give you a shoutout!

I'm active in logistics and we've been looking into sustainable options to cut down on waste. Got a LinkedIn? PM me, and let's connect. Your product sounds interesting – the logistics sector is always on the lookout for innovations like these. Also, have you looked into attending any trade shows or industry events? It's a solid way to get your product in front of businesses that can actually use it.

Hey! This is wicked cool, mushrooms ftw! I don't have e-commerce connects personally, but I've been reading up a lot on permaculture and sustainable living. My suggestion is to hit up local farmer's markets or organic product fairs. Those peeps are usually super into eco-friendly stuff and might have the network you're looking for. Plus, they can give great feedback on your packaging. Keep it earthy, right? 🍄
