PepsiCo Search For Sustainable Retailers – Shortlist Announced

Some might assume that running a sustainable business is about all about making changes that will minimise the impact a business has on the environment.  But, to be successful, businesses big and small are thinking about the long term implications of everything they do from what the impact will be for their daily performance, to the wider decisions they make and how they will affect their staff, suppliers, customers and the wider community in which they operate in.

Within my role in the UK & Ireland market it has been especially exciting putting Performance With Purpose in to action by working with well respected organisations and one of the most prestigious retail award ceremonies to create an award category to recognise sustainable business practices and achievements which stores are making to their businesses now, to help make themselves even more successful in many more years to come.

So, PepsiCo UK & Ireland is sponsoring the ‘Most Sustainable Retailer of the Year’ category at the prestigious Retail Industry Awards after introducing the brand new category in 2011. We are proud to be acknowledging retailers who are building greener, healthier, more sustainable, successful businesses for their staff, customers and communities.
