Meet our Founder - Vincent Cobb

Vincent Cobb started reusablebags.com® back in 2003 in response to society's growing problem of mindless overconsumption of use-and-toss items. He pegged plastic bags as the most iconic example of the issue because of their ubiquitous and environmentally-harmful nature. And, he saw practical, simple solutions - reusable shopping bags and plastic bag fees. The ideas captured his imagination, and he created reusablebags.com® as a hub and resource on the issue, which grew to address a host of other related problems.

Always looking to the future, he knew that reusable bags were the ideal "gateway" reusable that would help introduce people to a more comprehensive "reusables" lifestyle.  In 2010, he realized this broader vision, with the launch of reuseit.com - reusables for every part of your life.™

A self-taught entrepreneur, Cobb's knack for innovative product/business development and out-of-the-box thinking led him through the launch of 3 companies and 9 product lines. With reuseit.com, he's leveraging his experience and talents to be a change agent.

One of his favorite quotes:

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." - From Apple's original Think Different campaign circa 1997
