18 // Jolynn Beh of Bobbleware - Journey to sustainability one Hello Kitty at a time

Jolynn is the innovative mind behind Bobbleware, a side hustle she started at the end of 2019 while working a full-time job in the city. Her daily urban life, involving morning coffees in her keep cup and bubble tea lunches, sparked an idea that turned into the birth of Bobbleware. After noticing the absence of eco-friendly options for bubble tea drinkers, Jolynn envisioned a reusable cup tailored to accommodate the popular beverage. She spent seven months refining the concept in response to the widespread use of single-use packaging, resulting in a more sustainable solution for bubble tea lovers in Australia.
