Popack — Sustainable packaging marketplace for Latin America

Popack: discover the first sustainable packaging marketplace in Latam. Now you can buy, sell, design and customize in an agile, intuitive way. Context: as consumers rely more on e-commerce, companies must adapt to meet purchase demand more sustainably; digital marketplaces enable practices aligned with the New Economies. Problem: packaging is a global-impact industry, with annual growth of +0.9% from population growth, +3.1% from higher consumption and 3.5-6% from more packaging.
Sector problems: development times, packaging accessibility and +30% in costs. Current estimates predict a plastic peak by 2100: global plastic packaging production quadruples by 2050, only 2% closed-loop recycling in 2013, 53% in the best case by 2050. Solution: innovate and scale business models that cut plastic packaging at the source. It is time to be part of the solution. With technological disruption as a base, the first marketplace built to generate a community, promoting environmental awareness and educating toward responsible consumption.
Digital marketplaces as a tool for sustainability: B2B supply chain, variety of suppliers, secure purchases, minimal intermediary costs, shorter production times, only eco-friendly alternatives and access to financing.
