(Vanessa Vasquez - Editor-In-Chief - Natural Living Review) - According to a study conducted in July 2021 with more than 10,000 respondents, 60% considered sustainability in their buying decisions. 

Being the key consumer in the plastic packaging industry, the CPG stakeholders are compelled to look for sustainable solutions.

Although, for organizations in the natural and organic industry, sustainability is a minimum entry requirement. However, the landscape is ever-changing. What worked before may not work now. What worked with them may not work for others. 

So keeping up is a necessity. Be informed or involved in the innovation.
