Setting foot into Bare Market’s new 2,800 sq. ft. home is like walking into an airy, Goop-inspired version of Bulk Barn. The space is outfitted with sleek display tables and wood shelving stocked with body care products, household cleaners and dry foods , all in bulk. There’s kombucha and an assortment of vinegars on tap, as well as dairy-free ice cream and vegan cheese available.
, Bare Market prides itself on being completely accessible. “We use waste as a lever to start a dialogue around larger and more complex environmental and social issues, while still keeping the experience fun and accessible to all people,” explains Stein. That means encouraging shoppers to bring in any container they have on hand, as long as it’s clean, dry and not chipped.
In addition, Bare Market boasts a cafe, which Stein explains is meant to help upcycle any surplus produce the shop ends up with . In keeping with the no-waste ethos, the cafe does not offer disposable cups, which means you either bring your own cup, or you can borrow a travel mug for a $5 deposit, part of theoffered in select Toronto cafes. There’s also the option of taking a moment to sit down with your Americano in the space’s charming seating area.
