Walmart's 2019 Sustainability Milestone Meeting

摘要

The shared value of sustainability, the importance of partnerships to create sustainable solutions, and the urgency with which these solutions need to be put in place were among the top themes at the opening event for Walmart's 2019 Sustainability Milestone Meeting, held in April at the retail giant's home office in Bentonville, AR. The meeting was attended (in person and online) by more than 700 suppliers, environmental NGOs, and Walmart associates, and provided updates on a range of initiatives the company is working on with these groups to improve sustainability performance across global value chains.
