From niche to success: OHNE and The intolerant Isi
Hannah Sartin, founder of OHNE The packaging-free supermarket. Fed up with the packaging madness, she changed her lifestyle to zero waste and decided to create a packaging-free shopping alternative for Munich. The idea for OHNE was born. More than 900 people supported the packaging-free supermarket via crowdfunding, which opens its doors on February 20th. Following the funding of Berlin's "Original Unverpackt," similar packaging-free store projects have now been crowdfunded across Germany. At the Crowdfunding Night, Hannah answers questions about how difficult or easy it is to follow in the footsteps of strong role models when crowdfunding.
