Reducing Plastic Retailing Best Practice

Our 120 page document highlights examples of the best practice we have seen when it comes to reducing plastic. All observations and images are generated from our store visits from around the UK and indeed, the world at large. (pre COVID).

Our best practice methodology allows us to focus on a specific area of retail, with the Grocery Insight team holding a deep dive meeting to review all of our images that highlight where plastic has been reduced, be it signage, packaging, initiatives, trial stores, product examples, our list goes on and on.

The output is both a report and the associated images which feature the very best examples of execution that we have seen from our countless store visits around the world.

All of this is curated by our team (and me!) to showcase real expertise whilst providing actionable insight for your organisation with one eye on the 'reality of retail' - as ever.

In this document - we focus on the growing area of plastic reduction and sustainability, alongside the growing trend of the move to "net zero" as well.

We look at the various ways that retailers and suppliers have both reduced plastic and then how they've communicated the change to the customer. We look at the latest work from Waitrose, Tesco and the other leading UK retailers, alongside inspiration from around the world too.

Alongside this. We consider how retailers have looked to reduce plastic in their stores.

Are there quick wins for your organisation based on work that has occurred elsewhere? Is it a major change that requires numerous stakeholders?

Does it require the customer to do anything, materially different?

Or is it something that could be adopted by every single retailer and reduce the amount of plastic being used across the world?

Our reducing plastic, retailing best practice document features over 100 examples of such activity to reduce plastic and indeed, general waste output.

Bespoke Reports

Whilst we have a wealth of reports from our store visits and seasonal event overviews, there's always more to say, and infinite ways to combine imagery. Perhaps you want to showcase a particular category, from a specific year, or a specific tier of products plus anything from a particular country... the number of combinations is endless.

We understand that requests come in all shapes and sizes. We think of our images as the raw material, and, once given a request or brief, we're able to use our imagery, combined with our insight, to craft something that will not only satisfy your immediate requirements, but will be something that you can treasure for many years to come (or at least until you get another request from a client or a stakeholder.)
