EPISODE 35

Rachel Krupa is the Founder of The Goods Mart, which is pretty much what you’d get if 7-11 and Whole Foods had a baby.

In other words, The Goods Mart is a better-for-you, socially conscious alternative to the modern convenience store. They’re making higher quality options easily available, curating over 350 mission‑driven products (so far) that are not only delicious, but also healthier and better for the environment. They’ve balanced accessibility with planet-friendliness, purpose with design, and curated the best possible products for a range of budgets to create a feel good convenience store experience unlike any other.
