Retail supply chain

WRAP works with businesses throughout the retail supply chain including retailers, brands, manufacturers and the logistics sector.

The work focuses on reducing packaging and food waste, and increasing the use of recycled content. We are extending this work to major brands and DIY chains, and work with retailers and the Government to reduce the impact of single-use carrier bags.

WRAP is helping the construction sector and their clients to use resources more efficiently and halve waste to landfill by 2012.
