The fight against plastic pollution is one of Auchan Retail’s priorities, as expressed in its Vision 2032. As a signatory of the European Plastic Pact in March 2020, the Group has deployed practices on an international scale aimed at eventually offering 100% reusable, recyclable or compostable product packaging for its Auchan products and eliminating plastic packaging as far as possible from self-service food and fruit and vegetable departments.
Today, following the decision of the Steering Committee of the European Plastics Pact to end its current activities, Auchan Retail has chosen to join the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Network to continue its action and achieve its objectives. This membership was finalised in the summer of 2023.
