Start Your Own Refill Shop!
Opening a refill shop is one of those ideas that feels both simple and overwhelming at the same time.
On one hand, the concept is clear: reduce waste, offer thoughtfully sourced products, and create a space where people can shop more consciously.
On the other hand… how do you actually do that?
What products do you carry?
How do you price them?
How do you design a space that people understand without needing a full explanation every time they walk in?
How do you make it sustainable—not just environmentally, but financially?
These are the questions we asked ourselves when we started.
And they’re the same questions we hear from people all the time now.
Where to start?
You don’t need to reinvent the wheel—but you also shouldn’t have to figure it out alone.
Opening a refill shop is one of the most impactful ways to reduce waste in your community. It’s also… a lot. From sourcing products and designing your space to navigating regulations and building a customer base, there are a hundred decisions to make—and they all matter.
We’ve been there.
At re_, we built our refill model from the ground up—testing what works, learning what doesn’t, and refining every detail along the way. Now, we’re here to help you do the same, with clarity and confidence.
