This study aims to address some of these research gaps, by examining sustainable entrepreneurs' business models, created impacts, current challenges and how they work with key stakeholders to overcome these and advance a shift to more SLs. This study is based on interviews with eight U.S.-based entrepreneurial companies focused on reducing material consumption and promoting SLs. The sustainable entrepreneurs in the study included Box Save, Fixit Clinic Newton, Food For Free, IRN Surplus, Joro, Preserve, Project Repat, and Semi-New Computers. ./cache/cord-298184-4o5ffk7y.txt ./txt/cord-298184-4o5ffk7y.txt
