JYBE co-founder and CEO Alison Diamond said: “The restaurant industry in the era of the global pandemic looks completely different, as restaurants turn to takeout and delivery to maintain business and serve customers. With that comes an increase in takeout packaging.

“We’re launching an app that allows users to find restaurants using sustainable packaging with the ability to promote the transition to eco-friendly products through consumer demand.

“The goal is to educate diners and restaurants alike and lead a cultural shift on par with reusable supermarket shopping bags or the elimination of plastic straws.”

JYBE’s “Sustainability Bill of Rights” promotes reusables, aluminum, paper, glass, and biodegradables.

In 2021, JYBE plans to expand in Portland, Seattle, Denver/Boulder, Boston, Chicago, New York City and DC.
