Company description

SUPPLY Bulk Foods is Boston’s first online, plastic-free, dry bulk food store that carries over 200 products, many locally owned suppliers, fair trade, organic and ethically sourced foods, such as grains, spices, beans, coffee, snacks, chocolate, nuts, dried fruits, baking essentials, accessories, etc.

Our mission is to teach people to live plastic free, making it easy, while helping to alleviate Massachusetts' food insecurity issues.

SUPPLY’s model is one where, instead of high delivery fees and traffic ridden travel to a store, orders are placed online and then picked up locally at a partnered business in their neighborhood (20 partnered businesses in Eastern MA so far…).
