Sustainable Retail Event- Unlocking Your Competitive Advantage

Join BEE Anglia, M&S and other sustainability leaders to understand how your business can develop its competitive advantage through sustainability at this free event on Friday 9th March 9:30 – 1pm at IP-City Centre in Ipswich. Refreshments and lunch will be provided.

The world of retail as you know it is changing. Sustainability is gaining momentum but is also posing new challenges.

The speakers at this event will be sharing some of the following insights:

• M&S:  what sustainability means to us, our challenges and opportunities and how we are working with suppliers to realise sustainability strategy
• Where Does It Come From?:  understand how your business can develop a sustainable sourcing policy and why your customers will care
• Hubbard Limited, MAAC conditioning and Bright Light Technologies: latest trends in heating and cooling and how your business could be more sustainable, whilst reducing operational costs

Keeping up with the rapid advancements in lighting, heating and cooling technologies is hard, but which ones should your business invest in? Consumers want to know where their products are coming from and how they are made, but what do you need to disclose and how?  Your customers have their own environmental strategies that you need to adhere to from policies to questionnaires, but how do you meet all their sustainability requirements?

Businesses like M&S are turning these challenges into opportunities, enabling them to create that all-important competitive advantage. By becoming more sustainable, many retailers have found ways to reduce operational costs, minimise sourcing risks and improve customer satisfaction.
