Sainsbury's makes major change in 77 supermarket stores and says 'we're excited' Sainsbury's has made a huge change to 77 of its supermarket stores in the UK.
The supermarket chain has introduced new plastic-free packaging for its own-brand Ripe & Ready Avocados twin pack in a bid to reduce plastic waste.
Claire Hughes, Director of Product and Innovation said: “Switching to paper packaging across our Ripe & Ready Avocados twin pack is one of the many steps we are taking to fulfill our commitment towards a greener future.
The packaging trial is underway across 77 Sainsbury’s stores, and a wider rollout to more supermarkets and online is expected later this year.
Last year, Sainsbury’s switched from plastic to cardboard punnets for a range of its Taste the Difference berries and cherries.
