The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Nellie's started in Canada in 2008. The brand makes cleaning products and laundry supplies. Their concentrated laundry soda blocks gained attention for cutting packaging waste. The products arrive as solid tablets instead of liquid bottles. This approach reduces shipping weight and plastic use significantly. Nellie's expanded to dish soap, wool dryer balls, and surface cleaners. The brand operates across North America with particular strength in eco-conscious retail. Today Nellie's ranks fifth among tracked home and kitchen brands. The company remains known for packaging innovation and sustainable formulation.
