In 2007, we launched www.igd.com/sustainability. This is a free information resource for the food and grocery sector, designed to help companies understand and meet the challenges posed by the ever changing and evolving sustainability agenda.

The site was established because, despite there being a lot of information available which is relevant to our industry, it was not always easy to find.

So we have established a ‘one-stop-shop’ that enables you to get up to speed with what is happening, what others are doing and what you can do.

The web area covers the major topics that impact on the food and grocery sector, such as:

Within the section there are a number of factsheets and articles encouraging and informing industry to achieve best practice.

There are examples from numerous companies from the sector showcasing best practice initiatives that they have implemented. These Industry Case Studies offer advice on how best to tackle issues and highlight the achievements made through implementing such initiatives.

The site has continued to grow since its launch. With more topic areas being added and the content continually being updated, the site has received more and more visitors and extremely positive feedback from those who have been surveyed.

Some feedback from the 2008 Sustainability website survey:

It is terrific news that IGD is focusing an entire section on sustainability

Great one stop shop
