London, July 14th, 2021 - Green logistics provider, Urb-it and World Beer Award winner Freestar are partnering to bring ethical and sustainable, non-alcoholic beer deliveries to London. Utilising, Urb-it's Micro-fulfilment centre (MFC) service, Freestar will seek to reduce its carbon output and boost its last-mile delivery capability by holding stock closer to its local customer base.
Urban pollution is an ever-increasing health threat, and the number of environmentally conscious consumers is on the rise, with 43% of consumers more likely to choose retailers that offer more sustainable delivery options.* Operating green deliveries via urban Micro-fulfilment centres, Urb-it, and Freestar will join forces to bring sustainable on-demand deliveries to consumers in London.

Sustainability runs throughout our business so working with a fellow B Corp whose mission and values are so aligned is something we're very proud of. We're thrilled that we can offer our London customers a low carbon footprint delivery for our award-winning alcohol-free beer."

About Freestar:
· Freestar was founded in 2019 with a mission to provide the first truly non-alcohol, great tasting, sustainable beer.
· Co-founders Eddy Dallas, Felix von Hunter, and Charlie Crawley, have since created an award-winning alcohol-free beer brand after being crowned the 2019 world beer award winners for the UK's best low alcohol beer.
· As opposed to the typical fermentation process which removes alcohol from full strength beer to create a non-alcoholic product, Freestar blends 100% natural ingredients without yeast, which guarantees its 0.0% ABV.
· In July 2020, Firestar became the first alcohol free beer to certify as a B Corporation, with a common goal of building a more inclusive and sustainable economy.
· Freestar is better for the planet, the brand's unique production process emits 90% less Co2, uses 80% less water, 80% less energy and creates 70% less waste than other production methods.
