Savings are a Site Audit Away

In grocery, every dollar counts. One of the greatest cost saving opportunities for banners and locals is in goods not for resale (GNFR). From packaging and labelling to sanitation, PPE, and checkout supplies, GNFR quietly drives costs and can pose compliance issues if not routinely audited. Bunzl Grocery’s Cost Out Model is designed to help businesses lower Total Cost of Acquisition (TCA) across GNFR while maintaining the efficiency of day-to-day operations.

Why Selling Sustainability Matters

Consumer awareness around the environmental impact of purchasing decisions continues to grow. According to a recent survey, 92% of shoppers say sustainability is an important factor when choosing a brand. Adapting your business’ retail packaging offerings to align with consumer values is not only key to retaining current customers, but gaining new ones.
