Zero Waste
We understand that to achieve Zero waste we must decouple waste generation from business growth by contributing to a more circular economy that prioritises recycling, reuse and recovery.
Some of our key focus areas include:
- Increasing recycling and waste diversion at our stores and distribution centres, with an immediate objective of achieving 60% waste diversion across our operations.
- Reducing food wastage, through effective redistribution of non-saleable items, improved cold chain handling and composting and waste to energy where necessary.
- Working with suppliers to assist customers to appropriately dispose of problematic waste streams, starting with e-waste.
- Increasing recycling rates by encouraging sorting and separation of packaging at source through the introduction of simplified On- Pack Recycling Logos on all private label products.
