CVS Health, a leading drugstore and pharmacy company, has announced its membership in the Sustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC). CVS Health joins over 190 coalition members including Target, Unilever, Procter & Gamble, USPS, Verizon, Disney Consumer Products, and many others collectively working to advance sustainable packaging.
CVS Health's membership in the SPC builds on their efforts to reduce product packaging waste in collaboration with its suppliers.
"Retailers play a pivotal role in packaging decisions and CVS Health's tremendous reach offers a tremendous opportunity," said Adam Gendell, Associate Director, Sustainable Packaging Coalition. "We are excited to welcome CVS to the Coalition and we look forward to working together."
"One of the key pillars of our CSR roadmap is to reduce our impacts on the environment," said Eileen Howard Boone, SVP of Corporate Social Responsibility & Philanthropy. "We are committed to reducing waste resulting from our products and packaging and we're excited to be part of this coalition to help achieve that goal."
