ecobags

In 1989, Sharon built a business with no outside funding called ECOBAGS. She helped pioneer the greater shift away from single-use plastic and towards more sustainable business packaging and practices. She’s also the author of The Magic of Tiny Business, and she’s built an amazing life for herself, her employees, and her family. Oh and she also has a background in theater, so we’ve got that in common too! What an inspiring story we have today…

The coronavirus caused millions of growing businesses to screech to a stop as if a deer just stepped onto their road to success. Sharon Rowe of ECOBAGS has been on that road for 30 years which has provided her with wisdom that prompted her to act decisively to ensure her employees maintained some income. Now, she watches as her Christmas, a/k/a Earth Day, passes her by as she's hopeful that this crisis will lead to changes in business & consumer behavior.
