Reusable containers, the zero-waste revolution!
Getting rid of disposables requires more than just bringing your own shopping bag. Ozarka is committed to solving the problem of disposable food packaging at every level: reusable food packaging, zero-waste delivery, logistics, and commercial food service. If you’re serious about making throwaway a thing of the past, we’re the partner you need.
Zero-waste is hard. We’re making it happen.
Three Integrated Solutions for Going Waste Free
Ozarka is tackling the zero-waste problem with three integrated solutions: DeliverZero food takeout and delivery, ARK Reusables food packaging, and Reusables as a Service.

Our Story
Beth Massa spent the first part of her career at Amazon.com, during the hectic early days, and the second part of her career at Microsoft in the Netherlands. That’s where she learned about the plastic pollution crisis from her scientific research clients, and got obsessed with finding practical ways to tackle this global issue.
She came up with the idea for Ozarka during a solo weekend in Paris, where she sometimes visits to clearing her head and think about the future. It brought together three things she’d long wanted to do: start her own business, create an experience that customers really love, and make a genuine positive impact on the world.
Beth is the “Why” of Ozarka.
Michael Massa has a background in electrical engineering, a degree in patent law, and a certification in data science. He always gets nervous when Beth goes on her weekend breaks to Paris. So when she came back from one and said, “I’m leaving the corporate world to start a new sustainable business…and I want you to join me,” he knew it was serious.
Michael is the “How” of Ozarka.
Beth identifies challenges, and Michael solves them. They also employ a world-class team (seriously, world class) of contractors to keep pushing Ozarka forward.
