Buy The Kilo - Eco Shop & Refilery
Plastic Free Shopping in the Heart of Tynemouth Village
Welcome to Buy the Kilo! We're here to help you reduce single-use plastic in your home with our eco-friendly items and refill products. We provide a variety of dried foods and groceries, household items and toiletries all sourced from sustainable and eco-friendly brands. You can shop our products online for delivery or collection, or if you're local then pop in and say hi!
To further support our ethos and to support local artists, we host gallery space within the store. The work shown is a diverse range of mixed media that highlights the blight of plastic on our land and similarly in our oceans.
We hope you will feel inspired to help be part of the change we all want to see.
