Galway’s Filling Station Eco Store has just scooped the Favourite Independent Retailer Award in the V Awards run by Wasted.ie. From a shortlist of five nominated stores located throughout Ireland, in a competition where customer votes were the benchmark for success, The Filling Station came out on top.

We are programmed to just buy and not even think about what it is that we are buying. A new grocery experience here in Galway is aiming to change all that, and a visit to The Filling Station on Abbeygate Street certainly is a bit of an eye opener. The concept is simple — the store offers you the opportunity to significantly decrease your consumption of single use plastics by bringing your own container or bag. The shop has a range of foodstuffs and household products — just go in, fill, weigh, and pay.
