"73% of UK consumers want to be more sustainable in 2021"
Over the next ten years sustainability will become a multi-trillion pound industry. We’ve already noticed some of the biggest brands and companies globally switching to eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives due to a change in consumer buying habits. It’s only a matter of time before everyone else follows suit.
Why it all started
LocoSoco founder, James Perry left his career in Debt Capital Markets, with a desire to create assets for people.
His ‘lightbulb moment’ happened when the local shop in the village he grew up in went out of business.
Community spirit kicked in and the locals came together to purchase and operate the shop.
7 years later, the shop is still thriving leading. This begged the question:
What else can a community achieve working together and how do we harness that energ?
"Above all else, LocoSoco is here to build long term partnerships in the pursuit of both environmental and economic sustainability."

What We Do
LocoSoco is a collaborative movement built on the belief that communities are the answer to a sustainable future.
Our planet needs us to start living more sustainably. The climate and biodiversity crisis we are living through is nothing short of an existential threat to all of us. At the same time, our local shops are disappearing and the assets that bind our communities together, such as schools, clubs and places of worship, are often under-funded and in danger of closure.
LocoSoco creates and delivers eco-friendly, sustainable and ethically sourced products, services and technologies.
By switching we can dramatically reduce the negative impact we each have on our environment and increase health and wellbeing.
We work with local retailers, schools, places of worship, sports clubs, councils and business leaders to create ‘eco-enterprises’ that enable them to maximise their impact support the mission for sustainable living locally and globally.
