How Retailers Can Embrace the Circular Economy
Retailers are uniquely positioned to drive circularity at scale. Given their influential role in the value chain and direct relationships with ever-more-engaged consumers, retailers have an opportunity to leverage these strengths, embrace new models and create real impact.
This hour-long webcast will build on the basics of zero-waste operations and explore how retailers are turning to innovative business models such as rental and resale, swapping single-use packaging for reusables and establishing product take-back programs — all while strengthening consumer relationships.
Hear from a panel of retailers that have navigated operational, financial and strategic hurdles to bring circular economy principles from theory into practice, and learn how your organization can do the same.
