Overview
This Global Retail Insights report presents the findings of a sustainability survey of 48 U.S. retailers and 33 U.S. wholesalers and distributors. This survey reminds us that many are just getting started in greening their products and processes. A majority of retailers, wholesalers, and distributors expect IT to play a role in going green, and Global Retail Insights maintains that IT applications and tools can be a much-needed foundation for sustainability as a transformation process.
"Our 2009 sustainability prediction emphasizes that the gap between leaders and followers will widen, and the growing use of numbers to define a company's sustainability progress is going to make that gap visible inside and outside of the company," said Leslie Hand, research director at Global Retail Insights.
