Hi! Ali here, founder of MP. In honor of Small Business Saturday, I wanted to come on here + give you a little back story on Modern Picnic, and how we got to where we are today… I started Modern Picnic completely out of a personal need. I was working in NYC, bringing my lunch to work every day, because of how much cheaper, faster, and healthier it is (because who can afford a sweetgreen salad every day?!), but I did not have a chic or functional way to do so. When I looked online, I only saw options for little kids and men, but none for women who wanted to look their best + feel their best. From there, Modern Picnic was born. Since the day we launched Modern Picnic (5 years ago) with The Luncher, we have been asked what food containers fit perfectly inside, and this year, we finally launched our very own food container, and of course we did it big and launched it with The Container Store! Every Small Business Saturday, I am so amazed at how much Modern Picnic has grown, and I cannot wait to see what the future holds! Xo, Ali P.S. - 30% off ends tomorrow at midnight est!
