Zero was set up by Marisa Edworthy, who lives in Bishop’s Tachbrook, and Charlie Demetriou, who lives in Binley in Coventry. The pair operate as a pop-up stall and also have products housed inside businesses across the midlands, including Harbury Post Office.

Customers can bring their own containers to fill with what products they want from the pop-up store.
