React Native Developer

Posted Apr 23

Ever ordered takeaway food and ended up with your trash can overflowing with plastic containers literally 20 minutes later?

Yup. Us too. In fact, every German produces on average 226.5 kgs of plastic waste every year, and we’re on a mission to bring that number to zero.

At VYTAL, we provide smart reusable Packaging-as-a-Service to canteens, restaurants, supermarkets and delivery companies to enable consumers to enjoy to-go food in a waste-free & convenient way. We are the operating system that makes reusables as easy and convenient as disposables. Not only are we able to convince more and more restaurant partners and end consumers to join our movement every day, but also the sharp minds of Die Höhle der Löwen (german Shark Tank) investors.
