The retail industry and its key stakeholders, including brick-and-mortar and online retailers along with manufacturers, suppliers, and wholesalers, have an important role in contributing to the solution for plastic pollution. Retailers themselves are key to mainstreaming reuse, as they are the most important interaction point with brands and with the public and have the ability to both drive supply chain changes and shift consumer behavior.
