Consumers in the UK are embracing sustainability more than ever before. In fact, as of 2021, 34% of shoppers had already chosen to purchase from a brand because they had environmentally sustainable practices.
As a business, if you’re not offering environmentally friendly products, you risk falling behind. And on the human side, it’s always good to do our bit for the planet. There is so much you can do to minimise your environmental impact and appeal to customers’ appetite for sustainable produce. That could include reducing the number of single-use products on display, buying from UK brands to reduce your carbon footprint, and showcasing local, ethical, and sustainable brands where possible.
Ultimately, the products you choose to stock can help both you and your customers stay sustainable.To help you out, we’ve rounded up 10 eco-friendly home decor products that’ll have your customers feeling great about their purchase and impact on the planet:
