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.

The Circular Connector, available on WalmartSustainabilityHub.com, represents a continuation of this sustainability commitment.”
