Big Bazaar / Futurebazaar / Future Retail / Hometown — using o[censored]nnecessary plastic bags | |||
Big bazaar is now producing it's own bags that are environment friendly but the problem is not entirely solved. The vegetables and fruits isle still uses a lot of plastic bags simply for packaging the food items after the weighing is done. Instead of doing using the standard plastic bags that are provided, the same big bazaar bag or any other bag brought by the customer can be used. This way the plastic waste generated is reduced tremendously. And if this does not work as well, big bazaar being a huge company can figure out a solution to this problem. And if in case anyone is still skeptical about this plastic hardly makes a difference, let's do the calculations together: India alone has 256 big bazaar stores. Let's slect the minimum value and say that in a day, on an average 40 people buy groceries. If, again taking the minimum value, assuming that a customer buys only 3 fruits and or vegetables, then 3 plastic bags will be required. So 256 stores x 40 people x 3 bags= 30, 720 bags will be generated in a day. Just a day. So in a month, 30, 720 x 30 = 9, 21, 600 bags will be generated in month. And these values are at a minimum. All of this is non-biodegradable and can be avoided. Was this information helpful? | |||
