About "Go Green: Green Retailing & Marketing In India" topic:
Even though the "Green Movement" started more than a decade ago, it is only now becoming the trendy thing to be, do and buy in retail sector. Building green isn't just a cost-saving strategy; its a brand-growth strategy. A green building is also an opportunity for retailers to communicate achievements and values with their key stakeholders – customers, shareholders, communities, vendors, and employees. It takes more than selling a few green products to be called a Green Business. The true nature of going green goes so much deeper than that. This topic will discuss on how retailers can establish a greeny environment in their business.

Renu is right. Retailers should use more and more eco-friendly products and should stop using products like plastic packets which are harmful for the environment. There are many alternatives eco-friendly products coming in the markets these days....

I completely endorse your idea ma'am. Use of solar or any other alternative energy would definitely help the retailers go green. Also it will be a sort of awareness program for the people who as of now know very little about renewable energies...

No right now we are not into green retailing it happens so that it costs more again to install all these solar panels, again there wil be more cost added to the setup, right now one can't afford the extra charges to go green.

The answer may be yes, as several environmental initiatives in the supply chain can be well-supported by RFID technology. Increased supply chain visibility based on RFID reads could give companies a better view of when inventory problems might be...

As part of their commitment to environmental responsibility, many retailers are creating eco-friendly stores. I applaud those retailers who are taking a leadership role in redesigning their stores, developing eco-friendly practices and working with their suppliers to provide environmentally-friendly products.... However, retailers often overlook how they can benefit from updating their in-store and back-office infrastructure with the latest energy-efficient technologies. When developing plans to upgrade or replace POS systems, manager s workstations and desktops, retailers should follow the energy-efficiency path. One such eco friendly technology is IBM surePOS 100. It combines energy effic...
