ch00ze v2.0

by Circular City

Our ch00ze system has had a major upgrade!

ch00ze v2.0 is a technology platform that enables Food & Beverage outlets and Property management to work together to achieve collective waste reduction targets through a smart reuse & return takeout packaging programme!

ch00ze makes lending reusable tablewares easy and convenient, with no need to collect deposits, or worry about lost inventory.

A packaging agnostic platform, ch00ze allows businesses to be in control of their branding, their choice of tablewares and their own operations.

ch00ze currently serves over 40+ Food & Beverage outlets across Hong Kong.

Traceable and transparent

We believe that change will only happen if we can measure the results.
Through item level tracking, we can follow each item through every touchpoint to provide traceability and transparency to the world of reuse & return, whether you're an individual or an organisation that wants to track your impact.
No more paying for "wish-cycling".
No more paying for false claims.

We give you reliable, transparent tracking and insights in real time.
