THIS IS A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR MARKETERS
CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR TO BE MORE SUSTAINABLE
This guide is the result of collaboration between six major UK and global companies who have shared their consumer insight and market experience: B&Q, Kraft Foods, EDF Energy, Marks & Spencer, Unilever and Waitrose. It draws on insights from an extensive literature review of more than 100 documents – from business, academia, government and non-governmental organisations – and conversations with more than 50 marketers. I would like to thank all members of the Steering Group and our partners, Insight Exchange and RKCR/Y&R, for all your tremendous support. Sincere thanks to our Marketplace Leadership Team, past and present, whose passion has driven this project following the launch of ‘How can marketers build sustainable success?’ Influencing consumers to be more sustainable is a necessary step to ensure we all move towards creating a sustainable future – I hope this guide helps you focus your approach and accelerate the pace of change.
