In mid-April, Walmart launched its new Circular Connector, an online tool designed to bridge the gap between companies searching for more sustainable packaging ideas and those that offer them. Says the company, β€œAs Walmart drives toward its commitment to becoming a regenerative company, it remains focused on accelerating progress on the environmental sustainability of its products. The Circular Connector, available on WalmartSustainabilityHub.com, represents a continuation of this sustainability commitment.”
