Goodbye to Hive Bangsar After 8 Years, But Our Jo
After eight years of leading the zero-waste movement in Malaysia, Claire Sancelot, founder of The Hive Eco Store, reflects on the challenges that led to the closure of its last physical store in Bangsar. Despite pioneering zero-waste efforts in Southeast Asia, changing consumer habits, the impact of COVID-19, and financial strain forced the decision. Claire acknowledges that while the zero-waste movement has waned, The Hive continues online, and she believes that demand for sustainable living will eventually return. For now, the business adapts to a new chapter, encouraging others to drive the movement forward.
