About Julie Shark:

I’ve always been passionate about environmental responsibility and advocated for sustainability in all aspects of my life, from everyday personal habits to larger scale best practices at my various workplaces. I truly get excited about finding new sustainability tips, and love inspiring everyone around me to adopt these practices as well.
Shopping for my family became increasingly difficult the more I learned about the catastrophic effects of single-use plastics. I’d spend ages in big box stores searching for products that used recycled materials, had minimal packaging, were certified environmentally friendly and not just greenwashed. I’d come home with half my shopping list because I simply could not support these wasteful business practices. The products I wanted did exist - they just aren’t as readily available as they should be.
During the height of the pandemic, my family made the 180° pivot from Toronto to the beautiful village of St Jacobs, Ontario. I recognized this new beginning as an opportunity to create Eco Shark, the online shop where people will feel proud of their purchases, be empowered to go Green, and learn how easy it is to make a positive impact.
