Martie is an online shopping platform on a mission to make quality goods accessible and affordable for everyone, while keeping perfectly good products out of landfills.

Martie intercepts that excess and turns it into an opportunity for shoppers, for brands, and for the planet. Martie works directly with brands on their overstock inventory, bringing high-quality pantry staples, beauty, and home goods to customers at up to 80% off retail.

Alec’s mission is to be the happy ambassador of the regenerative movement. Our belief is that great foods convey the stories of their origins.

Alec’s journey started with the desire to craft a genuinely OMG ice cream – both from a product experience as well as an ethical standpoint. That is what led us to create the first-ever regenerative organic and A2 dairy ice cream. An ice cream that’s loved by taste buds, tummies, and our environment.
