Many conventional cosmetic and homecare products have seen to have a negative effect on the environment and on consumer health. Among other effects, the industry substantially contributes to global plastic pollution and greenhouse gas emission. It accounts for up to 27% of global palm oil use, which in turn is one of the key causes for deforestation, especially in Southeast Asia. 

Its global supply chain involves human and animal rights abuses and has a negative CO2 footprint. Furthermore, many cosmetic and home care ingredients are questionable or unsafe for consumer health and can cause serious issues such as allergies, DNA alteration, nerve damage and cancer. 

GOZERO has made it its mission to tackle those negative effects by empowering consumers to consume more sustainably and healthy and by supporting sustainable and ethical producers to reach a wider customer base.

GOZERO is a new marketplace for cosmetics and home care products that differentiates itself through its focus on sustainability, transparency and through its innovative local delivery service that fosters regional trade.
