Retail & Consumer Product Goods 

The new green is market focused. Are you ready to capture the retail opportunities?

Retailers' sustainability requirements are growing and product suppliers' best practices are evolving rapidly. Consumer goods companies that want to maintain market access and shelf space need a strategy to stay ahead of these sustainability trends. Market leaders also know that sustainability can be a source of innovative ideas for delivering the next wave of products and services. 

Five Winds International's life cycle-based approaches will help  you understand why sustainability is important for your brands, improve the sustainability performance of your products, and succeed in the marketplace using credible claims. Personal care, food and beverage, apparel, and electronics product suppliers have benefitted from our practical strategies and tools that improve performance through:

• better design and material choices
• increased supply chain efficiencies
• greater market alignment, and
• improved compliance with retailer scorecard requirements.

A sampling of our clients in the retail supply chain—SC Johnson, Wrigley, Kraft, Armstrong, Johnson & Johnson, Eileen Fisher, Timberland, Coca-Cola, Gillette, Nike, Black & Decker—serves to illustrate the breadth of our experience with a diverse set of consumer products.

If your company is new to sustainability, we know how to help you get started with a focused approach. If your company wants to shape the products of the future, we know how to work with sustainability leaders to set global best practice.

The resources provided below will help you move forward—regardless of your starting point.
