ecostore
Ecostore began in a small ecovillage in Northland and has grown to be a brand synonymous with sustainability, prioritising the health of both people and the planet by using plant- and mineral-based ingredients, free from unnecessary chemicals. Over the years, they have pioneered innovation in sustainability, developing products like sugar-cane plastic bottles and launching initiatives such as the Plastic Return Programme and Refill Stations in supermarkets. Their focus on reducing plastic consumption and creating plastic-free alternatives has saved tonnes of new plastic from being created.
Ecostore products are available across New Zealand and exported across the Asia Pacific Region. In 2021, ecostore became B Corp certified, joining a global network of businesses that meet the highest standards for corporate social responsibility. Today, ecostore continues its mission to help families care for their homes, their health, and the world. This care goes into every home, body and baby product, because ecostore believes it should be easy to create a safer home, a healthier world and a better tomorrow.
Ecostore had the privilege of running In-Sight workshops across their locations in 2025, thanks to the support of Blind Low NZ, giving the team an opportunity to think differently about attracting, recruiting, and retaining disabled persons within their workforce. The workshops resonated deeply with attendees, who came away with an appreciation of how, given the right tools and support, employees living with vision loss are a valuable resource for any organisation.
