Before 2018, getting your ears pierced meant choosing between a Claire’s or a tattoo shop, neither of which were ideal options. Now, brands like Studs have revolutionized the experience by offering trendy, personalized piercing parlors that provide a chic, comfortable atmosphere, plus jewelry that ranges in price.

The wine industry's DTC model, which sells wine directly from wineries to consumers via online platforms and clubs, grew rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic but now faces significant challenges. Many DTC wine startups have struggled, with some declaring bankruptcy, while others have been acquired by Full Glass Wine Co., a Los Angeles-based firm founded in 2023 by Neha T. Kumar. The company revitalizes these brands by enhancing operations and market presence while maintaining their unique identities. Check out Forbes for more details: https://lnkd.in/eSyBaQdj

In 2020, Grove Collaborative, an online marketplace for eco-friendly home products, set an ambitious goal to become 100% plastic-free by 2025. However, as 2025 approaches, CEO Jeff Yurcisin has announced that they will not meet this target. Despite significant progress in reducing plastic use, collecting ocean-bound plastic and advocating for industry-wide sustainability, challenges with suppliers, scalable alternatives and costs have made the goal unattainable. Emphasizing transparency, Grove has openly communicated these difficulties and reaffirmed its commitment to continuous improvement and sustainable solutions.

In 2020, e-commerce company Grove Collaborative—which curates and creates eco-friendly home products like shampoo bars to soap concentrates—announced an ambitious sustainability goal: it would be 100% plastic-free by 2025. Four years later, and about 18 months before that goal’s deadline, Grove has an update: it will *not* be 100% plastic-free by 2025. Grove has made a lot of strides when it comes to reducing its plastic use, recovering ocean-bound plastic, and pushing the personal care industry at large to become more sustainable. Despite all that, it said it faced challenges in terms of its suppliers, scalable alternatives, and costs that ultimately pushed the completely-plastic-free goal out of reach. That all highlights the enormity of the plastic pollution problem and the ways that the material has become ubiquitous in our lives. I spoke with Grove CEO Jeff Yurcisin about what exact challenges the company faced in its quest to become totally plastic free, what it needed from the industry to make more progress, and about the company's new sustainability goal:
