Corporate Social Responsibility

This report considers shopper attitudes and behaviour in relation to the ethical and environmental policies, practices and initiatives of the UK's leading retail companies.

The report provides insights into areas of brand positioning and retail proposition development that retailers seeking to have a robust ethical and environmental policy need to consider.  It addresses the issue of ethical and environmental responsibility through analysis of perceptions of retailer performance based on consumer research.

Sample findings:

  • Just over a third of adults (34%) now think that it is a matter of some urgency that everyone does more to reduce their carbon footprint.
  • Nearly 4 in 10 adults have stated that they are altering their lifestyles on grounds of environmental consideration.
  • Three in ten adults (30%) acknowledge that they are saving money by being more environmentally conscious.
  • Actively reducing waste is identified as a positive environmental behaviour and is widespread with nearly six in ten adults (58%) indicating that they are taking steps to reduce waste.
  • A relatively small element of shoppers (12%) think that home shopping is actually greener than going to the shops.
