Lebanon’s economic crisis has led to a 63% increase in unemployment among women, pushing many to make and sell mouneh, traditional handmade preserved foods, to sustain themselves.
Recognizing their struggle, Puck repurposed its iconic blue-lidded cream cheese jars, inviting these women to package their homemade goods in sanitized jars. The women signed their jars, which were then distributed in supermarkets and on e-commerce platforms, using Puck’s own shelf space.
This initiative not only supported their small businesses but also highlighted their resilience. The stories of five of these remarkable women were captured in webisodes, showcasing their journey towards economic independence. Through this campaign, Puck is not just reusing jars, but also empowering Lebanese women in their pursuit of financial stability.
