Marty Metro is an eco-entrepreneur and successful CEO who has not only founded successful businesses, but also motivates and educates audiences through his engaging presentations. He came into prominence with his eco-friendly retail chain, Boomerang Boxes, which dealt in buying and selling used moving boxes. While his early attempts saw setbacks, Metro's resilience and entrepreneurial drive helped him refine his business model and eventually find success.

His speaking engagements are highly praised for their motivational and educational content, demonstrating that environmental initiatives can be profitable when implemented properly. His concept of "Sustainable Sustainability" showcases his passion for thinking about and implementing sustainable programs.

Despite initial challenges with Boomerang Boxes, Metro managed to salvage the situation by leveraging his knowledge of SAP as a technology consultant.

This reuse logistics firm now works with some of the country's largest and most recognized companies.

Recognizing the potential in waste management, Metro expanded his venture to include UCBZeroWaste, a waste reduction firm that helps clients manage all commodities, vendors, logistics, invoicing, and reporting. The company utilizes a proprietary software called WATER - Waste Analytics & Tracking for Environmental Reporting - and counts among its clients some of the most recognizable brands in the country, including McCormick Spices.
