Choosing better for the planet with Grind

Choosing better for the planet with

GRIND

Compostable & Plastic Free…we’re SOLD. This week we hear from Grind’s Social Media and Community Manager, Jaz, on all things Coffee, aesthetics, and sustainability. Founded in 2011 when David Abrahamovitch took over his father’s mobile phone shop and turned it into a café-bar… the Shoreditch coffee brand now spans eleven sites – from espresso to cocktail bars, an international-grade recording studio and more. What’s better? You can now enjoy Grind at Home – all the way from their state-of-the-art London coffee roastery. We’re talking Fairtrade prices, Soil Association certified – which means no pesticides, chemicals or solvents – with entirely compostable packaging. Did we mention it’s pretty? We’ll leave the rest to Jaz…

Hey Jaz, introduce yourself and Grind…

Hi, I’m Jaz, the Social Media and Community Manager at Grind. Grind started out in Shoreditch as a small café…it’s actually our 10th Anniversary this year (Happy Birthday Us)! We now have lots of locations around London and of course our, probably more famous now, at-home coffee subscription range.

Spell it out for us! What is Grind’s mission?

We’re all about sustainability, fair prices for farmers and looking good on your countertop.

How is Grind helping people choose better for the planet?

We noticed that whilst aluminium brands of coffee pods could be recycled, largely, most of them weren’t and there was a real gap for a lifestyle coffee brand with experience in roasting for compostable coffee pods, and that’s how our at-home range was developed.

Give us the low-down on Grind and product packaging…

It’s pink, it’s compostable and it’s recyclable – what more could a millennial want?

What, do you believe, is the Grind’s strongest sync with CanO Water?

We’re both heavily focused on sustainability, I think every brand should be. That and our packaging designers love a good minimalist aesthetic.

What’s the most shocking plastic statistic you’ve ever read?

The fact that we all dropped plastic straws when they only account for a tiny proportion of the plastic wastage affecting the oceans, especially when the biggest is fishing nets – definitely seen Seaspiracy on Netflix recently, can you tell?

How easy is it, both physically and mentally, for everyone to make the switch to Grind products? Give us your top tips!

It’s super easy, especially if you already have a Nespresso original pod machine, but if you don’t, we do have ground and whole bean coffee too. One top tip from me, invest in a good milk frother. Absolute game-changer.

Can you give us any insight into Grind’s future plans?

Haha, I’d love to share but then we’d have nothing to launch, I guess all I can say is watch this space.

Get your hands on Grind product! Yes that’s right…we’re giving YOU the chance to WIN a 3-Month Subscription of Grind product & 3 Cases of CanO Water. To enter head over to https://www.instagram.com/canowater/
