Environment
"We aim to actively seek ways to minimise our impact on the environment in the way we do business."
Landfill waste and plastic pollution are major environmental concerns. We are minimising and recycling waste from our operations, removing unnecessary packaging and limiting carrier bag usage.
We are committed to lowering our carbon footprint by reducing energy consumption in our stores, offices and distribution centres and cutting our transport emissions through improved efficiency.
Our environmental impact extends to the products we sell. We encourage responsible consumerism by offering wider ranges of energy-efficient and environmentally-responsible products — see the section on customers for more information.
"We see no conflict between responsible management and business as usual"
