Aidee and Monica, co-founders of online zero-waste marketplace inspired by Latino culture and traditions of sustainability
VOLVERde aims to return to our traditions of sustainability. Our customs of reusing, repurposing, and being conscientious stewards of our planet’s resources. Our ancestors cared for the earth, and it cared for them in return. VOLVERde is an online marketplace of carefully curated, beautiful, effective, low-waste products for your body and home sourced from a variety of responsible brands. We exist to make it easier to discover sustainable product swaps, shop responsibly, and minimize plastic waste.

A space for our comunidad & lifestyle of sustainability

As proud Mexicanas, we are passionate about social justice, and care a lot about leaving behind a better world for the next generation. A few years back, we were struck by how much of the “zero-waste” branding on the market was erasing the origins of black, brown, and indigenous communities. So, we set out to create a marketplace that celebrates & elevates our cultural ties to sustainability… with only the best low waste products.
