18 Jan 2019 --- British retailer and supermarket Marks & Spencer (M&S) has removed plastic packaging and “best before” stickers from over 90 lines of fruit and vegetables in a trial at its Tolworth, UK, store. The initiative supports M&S’ target of becoming a zero-waste business by 2025. The retailer has already phased out 75 million pieces of plastic cutlery given out in its stores each year and replaced two million straws with paper alternatives as part of its plastics plan, which aims to remove 1,000 tons of plastic packaging by Spring 2019.
