Giant Food shoppers in the D.C. metro area will soon have a fresh path to sustainability, as the grocery chain is circular reuse platform Loop’s newest retail partner.

Beginning this fall, customers in the D.C. metro area will be able to purchase a variety of products in durable, reusable containers found in Loop-branded displays in participating Giant stores, according to a Loop press release.

“Giant is committed to taking sustainable actions that reduce plastic waste from our landfills and improve our environment,” Diane Couchman, Giant Food Vice President Category Management, Non-Perishables, said in the release. “We are excited to partner with Loop, a global leader in eliminating waste, to offer our customers a program that allows them to shop their favorite products and help our environment.”

Loop then sanitizes the containers and sends them to brands to be refilled and restocked on store shelves.
