Introducing Our Newest Supplier - SESI

The Sustainable Ethical Supplies Initiative (SESI) is a social enterprise which started in the shed of a local primary school in Oxford in 2006.  Soon the scheme was in demand at other schools and joined various community led, voluntary run farmers markets. SESI campaigns in Oxford to help reduce food waste at one end of the spectrum and food poverty at the other, whilst actively promoting “refill” and thus cutting down plastic pollution.   

Over the years SESI became dissatisfied with unaffordable brands which made it difficult for most people to refill their plastic bottles. Its formulas of sustainable detergents are low impact to the planet and don’t cost people’s pockets. It works to keep up with important issues such as farming, human rights, animal rights, food justice, forestry protection, personal health and the impact of our way of life on the environment.  

One of the big advantages is that SESI collect, clean and then themselves re-use the bulk containers that are delivered to our shop, whereas previously, we had to clean and dispose of these ourselves.
