Innovative retailers and the European Commission are going to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of working side by side with a common goal: to promote sustainable consumption by reducing the environmental impact of the EU retail sector and its supply chain. They are doing this also through the Retailers’ Environmental Action Plan, a voluntary initiative which aims at reducing environmental impacts in the retail sector and its supply chain, promoting more sustainable products, and providing better information to consumers.

Retailers in Europe are in an exceptional position to promote more sustainable consumption not only via their daily contact with millions of European consumers, but also through their own actions and their partnerships with suppliers. The Retail Forum is a multi-stakeholder platform set up in order to exchange best practices on sustainability in the European retail sector and to identify opportunities and barriers that may further or hinder the achievement of sustainable consumption and production.
