Sustainability. It’s not a new concept, but with our planet feeling the effect of climate change, customers are taking it more seriously. And they want to buy from and work with businesses who take it seriously too.
That’s why 91% of SME owners believe it’s important to be sustainable, but 42% struggle due to a lack of guidance.
And with the focus often being put on priorities like keeping your business afloat or managing budget for future development, you might not be able to invest in more sustainable technology or only use fully sustainable and traceable suppliers. But there are some simple ways you can start to show customers your business is serious about sustainability.
Small steps add up to make a big difference.
Start today.
Whether you can consider eco-friendly alternatives, sustainable shipping practices, connecting with sustainable suppliers, or you’re ready to explore energy-saving options, you don’t have to do everything at once to show customers you care.
Take it one step at a time and, before you know it, you’ll start offsetting your carbon footprint and running a sustainable operation.
