Our Commitment to Sustainability
The long-term success of our business is dependent on the sustainable sourcing of our products. We’re constantly striving to minimise both the resource intensity of our products, and the negative environmental impacts associated with their production. Some of our initiatives include:
• Ranging Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified fish products, ensuring the fish used is in plentiful supply and is sourced from fisheries employing sustainable fishing methods.
• Supporting children’s charity Barnardos and their important work by providing children’s books, clothing, bed linen, electrical items and other household goods to distribute to those who need them the most.
• Teaming up with Foodbank, Oz Harvest and Second Bite hunger relief charities to support the disadvantaged and people living in at-risk communities. We’re helping to feed over 50,000 Australians a day by proudly donating quality, nutritious food each day.
• Becoming the first Australian supermarket to earn the Heart Foundation Tick of approval across a wide range of healthier exclusive branded products, from breads down to cooking sauces.
• Removing artificial food colours from all our branded food items and exclusive brand lines.
• Joining forces with Planet Ark as the first supermarket in Australia to offer a free recycling service for household batteries in every store.
