This has led to a demand for sustainable packaging solutions that are recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable. Retailers are responding by investing in eco-friendly packaging options, such as corrugated boxes made from recycled materials and minimalistic designs that reduce material usage. By aligning their packaging strategies with sustainability preferences, retailers can appeal to environmentally conscious consumers and enhance their brand image.
