27 Jul 2022 --- Morrisons is opening a “lower environmental impact store” in Little Clacton, UK. The store will use 43% less carbon, stock 366 loose products and be almost waste-free by using less packaging and enabling consumers to return their waste to the store. It will also quadruple locally-sourced products, increasing biodiversity schemes and community hours. David Potts, CEO of Morrisons, says: “This store is a significant step forward on our [environmental] sustainability journey. It brings together all of the environmental and social initiatives we have created that can be rolled out into other stores across the country. It will start to inform the design of many more similar stores to come.”
