Thank you for participating in our returnable container trial and for completing our survey. Your feedback is invaluable as we assess the next steps with this project.
- Approximately 72% responded that you would likely purchase a product in a returnable container with a deposit.
- Three suggestions recurred in the survey responses: improve the labeling, use containers that are easier to handle, and make the process more convenient.
- Two additional suggestions were to focus on products that are currently offered in containers that are neither recyclable nor compostable and to provide better education about waste reduction for our customers and in our stores.
Our project team is already exploring improvements for the returnable containers that address the survey suggestions. As your comments suggest, returnable containers are just one small part of our goal of achieving zero waste and promoting responsible packaging. Our next critical step is to sharpen our focus on where we all can make the greatest impact toward that goal. Your feedback has been instrumental in helping us shape the future of this goal, and we look forward to embracing the challenge together.
