Let’s get started!

Sustainable business ideas

Buying unused gadgets: The increase in demand for electronic devices has created a major environmental problem, as more and more tons of electronic waste are produced. However, it is also an opportunity. The idea is to buy unused devices at a low price and refurbish them to sell them second-hand or use their components in good condition.

Green construction: Consumers are increasingly aware of their actions impact on the environment, which is why they are concerned about purchasing eco-sustainable products. This idea consists of designing, producing, distributing, and marketing construction materials made from recycled elements or using ecological materials, thus offering an environmentally sustainable alternative for those people or organizations that want to build their homes or offices while reducing the environmental impact they generate.

Biodegradable diapers: Design and sale of eco-friendly diapers with colored covers filled with an interchangeable absorbent material that takes a maximum of 150 days to biodegrade (compared to 500 years for a conventional diaper). The disposable inserts can be thrown in the toilet or composted. You can also offer your customers the possibility of returning the covers in good condition once they no longer need them to be even more eco-friendly.

Eco-chic fashion: If you are passionate about fashion and caring for the environment, you can design, produce, and sell t-shirts, watches, sunglasses, and other accessories made from recyclable products, such as PET bottles, plastic and reclaimed wood. Your main market is young people interested in environmental conservation and social commitment, so an ideal sales channel for this type of proposal is the Internet.

Paper jewelry: Considering the large amounts of paper that are thrown away every year, a second use for this material is to make accessories (earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelets, and headdresses) using the filigree technique. The concept is very attractive among young women interested in fashion and the eco-friendly trend. Tip: cover your creations with an acrylic layer to ensure they stay in good condition even when they come into contact with water.

Biodegradable cleaning products: A person consumes up to 20 kilos of detergent per year and uses up to 50 liters of water per minute every time they wash dishes. The irrational use of cleaning products generates 20% of the agents that reduce oxygen levels in water and make it impossible to treat it for drinking water. For this reason, more and more consumers are choosing environmentally friendly options. The idea here is to produce and market cleaning and personal care liquids that are biodegradable.

Eco-friendly vehicles: The business of eco-friendly vehicles, such as electric vehicles and bicycles, is a very profitable opportunity. European countries are the main precursors of this type of transport. Some governments have required their use, and anyone who has a conventional vehicle must pay additional taxes. Some of the entrepreneurial ideas are renting and selling bicycles, motorcycles, scooters, and electric taxis.

Green Business Advisor: Companies have found it necessary to adapt their production and marketing processes to be environmentally sustainable. In this context, the figure of the “Green Business Advisor” emerges as a professional specialized in helping entrepreneurs and organizations comply with environmental regulations. This professional must master topics such as reverse logistics, circular economy, sustainable business models, etc.

Reusing cartridges: Toner and ink cartridges contain highly polluting substances (copper, rubber, aluminum, and steel) which, when in contact with salts from other waste, become acids that are harmful to health and the environment. In addition, their components are derived from petroleum and therefore do not degrade. For a decade now, refilling cartridges has been a source of savings for companies and users in general, as well as a socially responsible and environmentally friendly action.

Eco-friendly packaging: Single-use plastics are a major environmental problem, which is why more and more people and organizations are choosing to stop using them and turn to ecological alternatives. The idea is to produce and sell cups, cutlery, plates, bags, and other types of packaging made from biodegradable materials. Your main market is homes, offices, restaurants, and hotels.

Pet-Related Business Ideas

Pet cemetery and cremation services: When a pet dies, the most sensible thing to do is to treat the body properly, as throwing it out on the street or dumping it around can generate bad smells and contamination. We must also bear in mind that pets have become part of modern families, so many people would like to say goodbye to their faithful companions by giving them a dignified final farewell. In this context, pet cemeteries perform a very important social function.

Starting a veterinary clinic: While it is true that it is a somewhat common business, it is also true that with small details we can start an innovative veterinary clinic that attracts the attention of clients. Thinking about offering pet health insurance, home service, online consulting, and other complementary services can make your clinic the favorite in the market.

Pet clothing and accessories business: A rather curious idea, but one that can be very profitable. Pet owners can pay a good amount of money to dress their pets to their liking.

There are several ideas around this business, you just have to put a lot of creativity into designing an attractive value proposition and always remember that the most important thing is respect for animals.

And, on the other hand, drop shipping refers to a model in which the entrepreneur does not need to manage inventories or worry about shipping logistics, he only has to focus on selling and the supplier is responsible for sending the product directly to the customer, making the process much more efficient.
