WASHINGTON (PRWEB) May 02, 2023 -- JoyLet Honored for Disrupting Baby Gear Category with Innovative Rental Bundle Package
- Newborn Bundle provides 7x reduction in waste from manufacturing, packaging and disposal, and reduces Co2 emissions from transportation by 86%
- JoyLet experienced double digit month-over-month growth while offering new ways to rent baby gear
JoyLet, the subscription platform for baby gear and toddler toy rentals, today announced that its Newborn Bundle of Joy received an honorable mention in the Consumer category of the Fast Company 2023 World Changing Ideas Awards. The Newborn Bundle of Joy was selected from a pool of more than 2,200 entries by Fast Company editors because it provides a unique full-service solution to the inefficient, expensive and wasteful way that gear is traditionally acquired.
The Newborn Bundle of Joy includes nine pieces of essential gear for baby’s first year, rented in a stage-based approach. This innovative bundle allows parents to save 50 percent off retail prices with the convenience of high quality gear pre-selected to match a baby’s developmental needs. The Newborn Bundle stands apart as a circular economy solution to baby gear because it reduces waste from manufacturing, packaging and disposal of baby gear by at least seven times. Further, JoyLet’s local pickup and delivery model reduces carbon emissions by 86% compared to buying new gear.
“The Newborn Bundle of Joy was born from our mission to make early parenthood easier and more sustainable," says Allison Cavsino, JoyLet Co-Founder and CEO. “We believe this project has the potential to reduce the mental load for parents, while making a positive impact on our environment and we’re honored that Fast Company has recognized our innovation.”
This year’s World Changing Ideas Awards showcase 45 winners, 216 finalists, and more than 300 honorable mentions. The awards honor sustainable designs, innovative products, bold social initiatives, and other creative projects that are changing the way we work, live, and interact with the world. A panel of Fast Company editors and reporters selected winners and finalists from a pool of more than 2,200 entries across urban design, education, nature, politics, technology, corporate social responsibility, and more. The 2023 awards feature entries from across the globe, from Italy to Singapore to New Zealand.
“It’s thrilling to see the creativity and innovation that are so abundant among this year’s honorees,” says Fast Company editor-in-chief Brendan Vaughan. “While it’s easy to feel discouraged by the state of the world, the entrepreneurs, companies, and nonprofits featured in this package show the limitless potential to address society’s most urgent problems. Our journalists have highlighted some of the most exciting and impactful work being done today—from housing to equity to sustainability—and we look forward to seeing not only how these projects evolve but how they inspire others to develop solutions of their own.”
