Behind The Scenes
Munu Hicken-Gaberria, Founder & CEO
The man behind the vision of LFT is an established entrepreneur (UK &. Canada) who upon first arriving in Vancouver in 2001 was awestruck by the surrounding natural beauty, which he found somewhat reminiscent of his birthplace, Tanzania. It was this experience that solidified his decision to make Vancouver his new home and sparked his desire to establish a business that will help protect the planet. After immigrating to Canada in 2006, Munu focused his energy and experience into green consumer goods. As a user of eco-friendly cleaning products, Munu was committed to fill the gap in the Canadian marketplace with sustainably packaged, refillable and toxic-free solutions, resulting in LFT Group Brands Ltd. and the launch of the Live for Tomorrow brand.
Munu keeps the pulse of the business at a steady rhythm and passionately drives growth through sales and new product development.
He is also a Director of the Port Moody Heritage Society, former member of the Port Moody City Council Economic Development Committee and Environmental Committee, as well as a former member of the Review Panel for Seeds Business Development Centre. He holds a degree in industrial design as well as an MBA.

For us it means using packaging that can be readily such, we use aluminum bottles as this is the most recycled material in North America, and as a result of our high concentration formulations, all our packaging is beautifully small. And all our efforts put in. sustainable packaging has been recognized by the National Zero Waste Council.
