Circular procurement in the corporate furniture sector, particularly through remanufacturing opportunities, provides an opportunity to #BuildBackBetter from the coronavirus situation.

This event on 22 September will explore why circular economy approaches are beneficial for the environment and for society, show the financial benefits for the organisations that buy furniture this way, and explain how procurers and suppliers can adapt to meet the challenges which this presents.
