Thought leadership for the consumer industry: Sustainability

With growing consumer expectations around sustainability for the companies they support, it’s never been more critical for brands to accelerate or jump-start their sustainability journeys.

Sustainable packaging and products and waste reduction are increasingly becoming expectations of consumers as they shop online and in-store. Consumers aside, companies must prioritize their sustainability journeys because of the sheer (and ever-growing) number of new sustainability and ESG-related regulations on the horizon.

As a result, consumer goods organizations need to define a solid ESG strategy as consumers and regulators expect them to comply with laws and maximize their positive environmental and social impacts on our planet.
