18 Sep 2023 --- UK retailer Marks & Spencer (M&S) is replacing all plastic carrier bags with paper alternatives throughout its entire store chain. The company says the move answers consumer demand for single-use plastic reduction.This year, the chain introduced a “Bring Your Own Bag” initiative for Click & Collect orders in the Clothing & Home sector, which is projected to remove over 10 million units of plastic annually, and in its F&B sector, where the majority of its plastic product packaging is currently used. So far, 75 million pieces of plastic have been eliminated this year.
