We are very passionate about what we do, as well as our social responsibility – we strive to grow our business to create a broader social and environmental impact. There are communities out there who need jobs, and because our business is low skilled and high volume, we can employ people from night shelters. We also collaborate with schools to encourage recycling,” - Lydia Jardine
