Management and Leadership
Identify Sustainability Leader
Description of Action: 
At our company, we prioritize recycling and waste management, which is why we conduct monthly employee meetings to keep everyone informed and engaged. During these meetings, we provide reminders about what items can be recycled and ensure that everyone knows the proper locations for waste and recyclable disposal. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we also take a proactive approach to reusing materials. The incoming packaging we receive from supplier deliveries, including items like Styrofoam, plastic air cushions, and other protective materials, is carefully collected and repurposed for shipping out products to our valued customers. This conscientious effort not only reduces waste but also helps us minimize our environmental impact as we strive to create a more eco-friendly and responsible operation.
Provide Environmentally Preferable Products Services
Description of Action: 
In our commitment to environmental sustainability, we have adopted a plastic-free approach at our store. Rather than offering purchased plastic bags to customers to carry their purchases in, we promote the use of reused, recycled, and repurposed alternatives. These recycled bags not only come from our own store but are also generously donated by other stores and customers. By embracing this practice, we aim to reduce plastic waste, minimize our ecological footprint, and foster a culture of responsible and mindful consumption.
Waste
Waste Reuse
Description of Action: 
To minimize waste and promote eco-friendliness, we have eliminated the purchase of new boxes for shipping. Instead, we fully embrace the concept of reuse and recycle by utilizing all the materials we receive from our own deliveries. By repurposing these materials, we not only reduce costs but also contribute to a greener environment by minimizing the demand for additional resources.
