Retail & Consumer Goods

Swiss consumers are becoming increasingly eco-conscious, with 73% preferring brands with strong sustainability commitments. Meanwhile, regulatory frameworks such as the federal Due Diligence Obligations for Supply Chains and the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) are requiring retailers to enhance transparency and reduce their environmental footprint.

EcoAlpina helps retailers and consumer goods companies decarbonise supply chains, improve energy efficiency in retail operations, and implement sustainable packaging strategies. Our ESG compliance audits, responsible sourcing frameworks, and circular economy solutions empower businesses to align with both regulatory and consumer demands.

Sustainable retail practices can boost customer loyalty, reduce waste management costs, and enhance supply chain resilience. By partnering with EcoAlpina, companies can future-proof their operations while driving profitability and brand reputation.
