Holy Carp was designed in collaboration with venues in Hobart, Tasmania, where single-use plastics have been banned since 2020. Here’s how venues in the Hobart CBD provide plastic-free soy sauce:
Free soy sauce in pourers
Soy sauce is provided for free in self-serve pourers in the venue.
Many customers pour soy directly onto their sushi.
Compostable containers
If a customer needs a takeaway soy container they get one at the counter or from a self-serve station.
Many venues charge between 25-80c for containers.
Some venues pre-fill containers ahead of time.
Other venues provide empty containers for customers to fill themselves.
All other packaging is plastic-free and compostable.
Reusable containers
Customers are welcome to bring their own reusable containers.
Other condiments
This system can also be used for ginger, wasabi and other condiments.
