Graza cofounder Andrew Benin doesn’t want you to be precious about his brand’s extra-virgin olive oil, but he does want you to appreciate it. Since launching in January, Graza has been winning people over with its playful squirt-bottle packaging, and turning them into loyal fans with the quality of the oil inside. advertisement advertisement Graza’s cleverly named duo of extra-virgin olive oils—Sizzle, for cooking, and Drizzle, for finishing—come in packaging that stands out amid the usual green-hued glass bottles. Both Sizzle’s tall, 750-ml bottle and Drizzle’s more squat 500-ml bottle are made of matte green plastic with a tip that looks like it was stolen from a bottle of Sriracha. And while it’s a differentiator, the packaging is only the beginning for Graza . The oil is the real star. Both Sizzle and Drizzle are sourced from Andalusian Picual olives. The ones that are picked and pressed for Drizzle are young and green, while the ones used … [Read more...] about This company is putting its high-quality olive oils in Sriracha-style bottles

Tan Sri Soh Thian Lai (Photo by Chu Junk Seng/The Edge) - A + A KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 12): The foreign worker application procedure, which includes the decentralisation of the interview process via the One Stop Centre at the state labour offices to allow the industry a seamless process of foreign worker application, should not be stopped as it would disrupt economic recovery, said the Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM). FMM president Tan Sri Soh Thian Lai said in a statement that the recent announcement by the government on the impending changes to the procedure has created much confusion as well as anxiety within the industry. This, he said, is because many employers are still in the process of replacing their workers that left during the pandemic period following the freeze on recruitment for a period of two years, while others are in the process of expansion due to an increase in demand and the need to fulfil the backlog in orders. On Aug 5, the … [Read more...] about FMM: Do not delay foreign worker approval, continue with current procedure

Memorial Day is approaching quickly, and the unofficial beginning of summer also marks a big uptick in weekend trips to make the most of the season. Whether you’re flying, driving, or taking a train, a tried and true companion on these trips is the humble weekender bag. In the interest of helping you give your weekend trips an upgrade this year, we had Fast Company editors and writers try five bags and give their honest opinion. advertisement advertisement Everlane Quilted Weekender I am in the process of packing up my stuff and moving to a new apartment at the moment and the Everlane quilted weekender bag has proved incredibly useful for carting a ton of clothes back and forth to consign at The RealReal and Buffalo Exchange.

Medical scrubs are hot right now—because, well, they’re hot all the time. They don’t go out of style, they’re always needed, and the people whose jobs require them will continue to rebuy them, as needed. The medical apparel industry was considered ripe for disruption , with direct-to-consumer brands like Jaanuu , Clove , Folds , and Figs featuring fashion-forward scrubs and footwear, thereby widening healthcare workers’ otherwise generic options. The concept seems to hold weight: Figs’ IPO debuted in 2021, targeting what the company estimated to be a $12 billion U.S. healthcare apparel industry . advertisement advertisement Jaanuu received a $75 million investment from Eurazeo in January, bringing their total funding to just shy of $100 million.

Milly Alcock in “House of the Dragon” As they say, the past is never where you think you left it. But that’s exactly where the creators of HBO’s “House of the Dragon” (HOTD), the eagerly anticipated prequel of “Game of Thrones” (GoT), wish to take its viewers—a monumental task that is as exciting as it is ambitious. Long before the Starks and the Lannisters found themselves fighting tooth and nail over power, birth right and survival, it was the House Targaryen that once ruled all Seven Kingdoms on the continent of Westeros. And why not? The Targaryens are mystical people with magic in their blood, so why shouldn’t anybody with the ability to control dragons be allowed to sit on the Iron Throne at King’s Landing? Last week, we spoke to HOTD’s showrunners, writer-cocreator Ryan Condal and director Miguel Sapochnik, in a roundtable interview to discuss the 10-episode series. “House of the Dragon”, which launches on HBO Go on Aug. 22, is based on author George RR Martin’s “Fire … [Read more...] about Trouble in paradise: ‘House of the Dragon’ showrunners on the Targaryens’ generational war
