Reusable bags: A Product Niche for Eco-entrepreneurs

Joling Mew is a San Francisco Bay Area resident who realized that plastic bags were going to be passé --- she decided to take matters into her own hands by creating an eco-friendly, environmentally conscious, reusable plastic bag.


Called "520 nm bags" and on the web at http://www.520nmbags.com, these bags are a terrific way to reduce, reuse, and conserve. Made out of 100% recycled plastic bottles, these reusable shopping bags are recommended by environmentally-friendly shoppers. They're eco-friendly produce and bulk food bags to help you shop green.

As a great plastic bag alternative, you can tote them to the farmer's market or the local grocery store. They come in a variety of colors and fold easily into your pocket or purse.

As a minority woman in business, Joling's product fulfills a number of niches. "520 nm is the wavelength of green light. It’s everywhere you look," she says, referring to the name of her company. The mission of her company is to "help you see the green in every day by offering simple solutions for a healthy planet."
