Sustainable shopping habits

Our latest research reveals that, while some consumers are interested in sustainability, concerns over other factors, such as the cost-of-living crisis, are increasingly weighing on people’s minds and influencing their buying decisions.

As such, there is a noticeable gap between consumer intentions and actual behaviours. Given the mismatch between retailers’ emphasis on sustainability and consumers’ actions, it may be time for retailers to rethink how they can encourage more sustainable consumer behaviour.

Among the issues this report uncovers are what stops consumers making sustainable choices? What are the differences in sustainable shopping habits in-store and online? What do consumers expect from retailers to promote more sustainable shopping behaviours? And what are some useful sustainability strategies for retailers?
