Dear XXX,

Green. It's our colour. But it's time we went even greener. Because we believe that becoming more sustainable is the way forward.

While we've made progress in reducing the amount of plastic in our stores, and made improvements in areas of energy efficiency, sustainable sourcing and reducing food waste, we know more needs to be done.

And today on World Environment Day, we have announced a number of initiatives that represent further small, but important, steps in our commitment to make positive change happen.

• By the end of 2018, all stores within the Woolworths Group will no longer be selling plastic straws - saving 134 million plastic straws from going into the environment every year.

• With our phase out of single-use plastic shopping bags on June 20th, Woolworths Supermarkets will offer a new green reusable shopping bag - with a lifetime replacement offer - for customers to purchase. Money made from the sale of the Bag for Good™ will also go to the Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants Program.

• We will continue to trial the removal of plastic packaging on a further 80 fruit and vegetable products over the next 12 months, to build on the 140 tonnes of plastic we saved in fruit and vegetables in the last year.

• By the end of this month, all Woolworths Supermarkets will have a convenient plastic recycling option for you when shopping in partnership with REDcycle. REDcycle is a closed loop recycling solution where you can return soft plastics used to package produce and groceries, so it can be put to good use by our recycling partners to create products such as outdoor furniture.

• A commitment for 100% of Woolworths Supermarkets to have a food waste diversion partner by the end of 2018 to support our commitment towards zero food waste to landfill by 2020.

We understand that this journey has challenges, and that being green is not easy, but together with you - our customers, we're determined to make positive change happen; to move our country and our planet towards a greener future.

On behalf of the Woolworths team,


Brad Banducci

Chief Executive Officer
