From central New Plymouth to Bell Block, to the TSB Festival of Lights, local coffee-drinkers are switching to a new easy takeaway coffee habit this summer. Four cafes are the first to join the Again Again reusable cup lending scheme locally, with support from NPDC as it continues its push towards Zero Waste 2040.
Again Again lends member cafes food-grade stainless steel cups, reusable silicone lids and reusable or recyclable paper sleeves. Cafe customers then borrow the cup for a one-off bond of $3. Next time, they can swap for a free fresh cup at any participating cafe, or get a refund of $3.
