The WAKEcup Story
WAKEcup was founded by old friends, Buffie and Nick. The two were working in the music industry when David Attenborough’s “Blue Planet II” series shook them in their boots, along with films like A Plastic Ocean. With a shared passion for fighting the “disposable culture” that contributes so much to plastic waste, they set out to create a solution and started WAKEcup. These days, they’re on a mission to change the world, fuelled by coffee from their reusable bamboo cups.
"Billions of single-use cups, bottles, straws and bags go to landfill each year. By investing in one our Zero Waste Kits, you will be prepared for whatever the day throws at you!" -Nick McEwen, Founder
