Objective:
To develop a greener, more sustainable business across all Tesco stores

Solution:
It became clear that we had to develop a worldwide environmental, sustainability programme for all textile & clothing suppliers across the globe to benchmark against.

Our ‘green factory guideline’ educated suppliers through a series of support workshops in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, China and the UK, on how to implement sustainable practices in architecture, energy, water, waste, emissions, soil and groundwater.

All suppliers now help to tackle climate change with a ‘five pledge’ undertaking to be greener.
