The Rounds delivers everyday essentials through an efficient, scheduled, last-mile logistics network, and the only optimized closed-loop (i.e. zero-waste) supply chain.

The company delivers refills and picks up the empties at the same time on a weekly schedule.  While the service is designed for people who don’t want waste, how large is the market for people who value convenience enough to need someone them to deliver these replenishables to them but are not sustainable enough to go to the store in the first place to get a real bulk discount?

Seems like a tough needle to thread.
