Study after study outlines the growing importance of environmental sustainability among consumers.

Food waste, package waste, carbon footprint and other sustainability-focused initiatives have become areas of cross-population interest. Now we hope to understand the measures the produce industry is taking in response — from the grower/shipper down to the retailer.

We have created a quick, five-minute survey to collect high-level benchmarks on packaging from an industry perspective.  We hope to include the insights of companies around the globe, large and small.

Completion is entirely anonymous and you can opt in to receive the benchmark report for free once the results are in. Additionally, your survey completion will provide 10 meals for families in need through a donation to Feeding America in partnership with Produce for Kids | Healthy Family Project.
