Fighting Ocean Plastic Pollution
Malte Niebelschuetz

Fighting Ocean Plastic Pollution through Social Entrepreneurship 

Malte Niebelschuetz is the founder and CEO of Shore Buddies. Malte is a German native who moved to San Diego, CA in 2011. Inspired by the beautiful coastline of Southern California, but confused with the intensive use of single-use plastic in this precious coastal community, Malte took on the challenge to improve the world. Shore Buddies was founded in 2014 and is the world’s first stuffed animal made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. Shore Buddies has kept over 1,000,000 plastic bottles from entering the environment and turned them into cute, soft stuffed animals. From San Diego to the world. Shore Buddies is sold in 10 countries across 3 continents, bringing sustainability into play.
