Jetty Oyster Shell Recycling Program
Jetty recycles Oysters?
We have been distributing Jetty clothing for half a decade now. They have always been doing good things.
When the pandemic started last year at this time, they created the Rising Tides Initiative.
For the first part, they gave 10% of their net profits from online sales to local brick and mortar stores across the USA. they used the Zip code on orders and gave the proceeds to their closest dealer.
Secondly, they created the Rising Tides merchandise line, and gave 100% of the profit to their retail partners.
Then they offered real help directly to retail partners that had their doors closed and didn’t have online stores set up.
They offered to print retailer merchandise, host a web store, collect payment, ship their orders, and then send a cheque to their retail partners.
That is a real helping hand!
Jetty Clothing has been giving back and doing good long before the pandemic.
In 2016 they collaborated with Stockton University, Parson’s Mariculture and the American Littoral Society to create a shellfish research program.
Out of this research was created The Oyster Recycling Program.
Putting thousands of new oyster back into the bay to create clean water.

Jetty clothing is distributed in Canada through Platform Distribution. Pairing with good people doing good, is what we do.
