From pandemic reflection to eco-entrepreneurs, Mat Beaudoinand Shawn Kearns of Greenbriar Market + Refillery are redefining sustainable shopping.
Frustrated by the lack of truly sustainable options, they launched an online store in 2021, vetting every product for eco-friendliness and effectiveness.
Their passion and complementary skills—Shawn's retail expertise and Mat's financial acumen—fueled rapid growth, leading to a physical store in Calgary and now a second location.
