Our Commitment to a Better Future

At Border Just Foods, sustainability isn't just a buzzword-it's a fundamental part of who we are. From the way we source our products to how we package and deliver them, every decision is made with the environment in mind. We believe that small changes can make a big impact, and we are committed to helping our customers shop in a way that is better for the planet.

Reducing Waste, One Refill at a Time

We actively encourage a zero-waste shopping experience, allowing our customers to buy only what they need and reduce excess packaging.

Our initiatives include:

  • BYO Container
    Customers can refill their jars, bags, or containers in-store to cut down on single-use packaging.
  • Bulk Buying
    Buy in larger quantities to reduce packaging waste and lower food prices
  • Minimal, Compostable & Recyclable Packaging
    Our online orders are carefully packed using eco-friendly materials to ensure sustainable delivery

Supporting Local & Ethical Sourcing

We are proud to support Australian farmers and local suppliers, ensuring that our products are responsibly sourced and ethically produced. Our approach includes

  • Prioritising locally grown and organic ingredients to reduce environmental impact
  • Partnering with suppliers who follow ethical and sustainable farming practices
