The team behind myGREENkart has scoured the land to make shopping for ethically-made, non-toxic products ridiculously simple, offering a range of organic, sustainable goods via their online portal myGREENkart.com

As a lone consumer, tracking down ethically-sourced and produced products that cause minimal harm to our health and the environment can be an absolute minefield. Wading through the plethora of facts and conflicting information about various companies, ingredients and government-approved standards can leave you with little more than a headache.   

This was pretty much the kind of scenario that the team behind online green marketplace, myGREENkart, faced when getting their business idea off the ground. Having grown frustrated at the fact that most readily available products and food were either highly toxic, laden with pesticides or harmful to the environment, they set about creating an online “one-stop-shop” where people could easily browse through a range of goods and foods that are all 100% eco-friendly and sustainably-produced.

Operating via the URL myGREENkart.com, the team doesn’t just have one corner of the market covered either. They have gleaned a top-notch selection of more than 1,000 products, sourced from suppliers and producers under a stringent auditing system. The spectrum of products available on their site is vast, ranging from energy-saving lamps to water-saving laundry powder and paraben-free cosmetics and almost every product or food item available has been personally tested by the team members themselves. 

We are absolutely thrilled to have myGREENkart supporting our campaign for World Environment Day. Entrants into our campaign who currently live in India will go into the draw to win one 1,500 Rs voucher from myGREENkart. Check here for all the details on how you can take part.

Head to myGREENkart’s website to peruse their extensive catalogue of eco-friendly products.
