British Retail Consortium invites you to their event

Accelerating Sustainability Maturity: From Strategy to Operations

About this event

Growing customer awareness of climate change coupled with a desire to make more environmentally conscious purchasing decisions have heightened potential reputational risks for retailers. Meanwhile, increasing regulatory scrutiny over the industry’s approach to ESG and its wider environmental and carbon footprint exposes retailers to more pressures.

How well equipped is the UK retail industry to respond to these pressures?

Join us and our Climate Action Roadmap Partner BearingPoint as we explore the results and implications of the recent sustainability maturity assessment conducted with a selection of our members across four retail sub-sectors.

BearingPoint will provide insights into the findings of the assessment covering 7 key dimensions:

  • Strategy
  • Governance & Organisation
  • Finance: Reporting, Regulatory, Risk
  • People & Culture
  • Operations & Supply Chain
  • Data & Technology
  • Customer & Stakeholder Centricity

We will also explore the key recommendations outlined in the industry report and how collectively, we can accelerate sustainability maturity with the UK retail industry.
