Meet Sue and Jules
At JST Bags, we’re on a mission to create a more sustainable future.
Our journey began over a cup of coffee with a simple idea: to provide reusable
shopping bags as an alternative to single-use plastic bags. We believed that by providing an
alternative to single-use plastic bags, we could help reduce the amount of plastic waste in the
environment.
We wanted to provide locally made foldable shopping bags that became the preferred shopping
bag of choice. Making a difference no matter how big or small to reduce the amount of plastic
waste was important to us and that is why we designed and created JST Bags. But it didn’t stop
there. We quickly realized that our impact could be so much greater.
We’re proud to be a partnership that values supporting local business, sustainability and
empowering women. Our journey has been one of growth, learning, and constant improvement.
