"NoPac Foods will be a full-service grocery store with 100 percent compostable and recyclable packaging, making it 100 percent plastic-free. Founded by Emily Robb, it aims to provide products that are sustainably sourced and fair trade, with a focus on the Pacific Northwest. The store will employ a return-refill system for most products and use compostable materials for items like meat. The first location is set to open in spring 2020, with plans for expansion throughout the Pacific Northwest." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
