Did you know that 20% of the world's fish and meat is consumed by our pets?

We didn’t… and so yet again, the learning curve continues. We love having conversations with amazing brands who are pioneering, disrupting the norms and thinking outside the box with a focus on delivering social and environmental impact.

Food security, the impact of food production and what we eat is an area of significant focus when it comes to wellbeing for all and transitioning to a sustainable future - something we cannot afford to ignore when considering food consumption for humans, but what about our beloved pets?

We invited Alessandro Di Trapani from Grub Club onto the Can Marketing Save the Planet podcast to dive into this very subject and find out more about their insect based pet food products, the benefits to pets (and the planet) and, the important role marketing plays in the narrative and behaviour change around insect based food.

We learnt so much in this episode so tune in to hear about:

• The only real way to drive sustainable change is to change where people spend their money. And, how we need to provide people with the options to drive change.
• Why having a vision and a belief in what you do can allow you to shake up an industry.
• Marginal and incremental steps to being more sustainable is so important and can drive real progress.
• How Grub Club has approached changing the narrative and telling their story which is key to overcoming some of the challenges both in terms of educating people, and changing mindsets which then leads to behaviour change.
• The importance of staying close to your customer - how to drive loyalty when building a community through wrapping a service around your products.
• Addressing the challenges of transparency, price points and education.
• Why creativity is so important in telling your story and how Grub Club try new ways and, channels.
