At The Nawaar Marketplace we take minimizing waste seriously.
Zero Waste
By choosing to offer on-site recycling & composting and with our efforts to re-use those materials that are not recyclable or compostable we are nearing our goal of being a zero waste business.
Helping Others Reduce Waste
We partner with other local businesses and individuals to accept their unwanted paper packaging, bubble wrap, packing peanuts, foam padding & cardboard boxes and reuse it in shipping.
Upcycled Costuming & Clothing

Giving new life to vintage sari fabrics is one of our favorite examples of our upcycled pieces. These amazing vintage sari fabric are cleaned, pressed and re-made into salawar pants and our popular corseted bodice tops.
Marketplace Consignments
