In mid-April, Walmart launched its new Circular Connector, an online tool designed to bridge the gap between companies searching for more sustainable packaging ideas and those that offer them. Says the company, “As Walmart drives toward its commitment to becoming a regenerative company, it remains focused on accelerating progress on the environmental sustainability of its products. The Circular Connector, available on WalmartSustainabilityHub.com, represents a continuation of this sustainability commitment.”

The platform has been designed by Walmart to make it easier for sourcing teams and brand companies to quickly find sustainable packaging solutions. “With the Circular Connector, we expect the journey to become easier for brands and innovators to identify and implement more sustainable packaging solutions,” it says.
