A group of Auckland teenagers is thrilled their reusable coffee cup design might be sold in supermarkets next year. Brianna Marvin, Hollie Craig, Chloe Laurence and Phoebe Meachen created the cups as part of the Ocean Youth program delivered through SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s Aquarium, for teenagers with a keen interest in ocean conservation and sustainability.
They were drafted to come up with their own project, researching and developing It over the course of the year.
“We knew from the start that we wanted to make a difference by donating to an organisation with the platform and the resources to actively make a change,” Phoebe tells 1 NEWS.
After designing their logo, they went to Kiwi company Ideal Cup and the reusable coffee cups were born. Proceeds from the sale of their first run were donated to Project Blue.
