The idea of sustainability has become increasingly prevalent in companies in recent years, and this is also the case at The Platform Group. With the aim of implementing sustainability more effectively in all three aspects of the company in the future, a number of factors have already been considered and concrete approaches have been developed. Social sustainability is already reflected in the approach of many of The Platform Group’s platforms,
in particular the preservation of brick and mortar retailers and city centres through the digitalisation of their products.Sustainable corporate governance, diversity and sustainable approaches to logistics are other factors. Also, for the most part, sustainable brands are offered in our online stores. We look forward to a sustainable future.

Many brick and mortar retailers in the city centres are fighting for their survival, not just since Corona. Especially in side streets or smaller towns, the situation is difficult. In many rural town centres, stores stand empty. In the big shopping malls, the same familiar names dominate again and again. We help brick and mortar retailers in an increasing number of sectors to showcase their product range and expertise on a growing array of platforms. This generates additional sales that secure their existence, jobs for their employees and life for the city centre. With us, there’s no robot picking parcels in vast warehouses; at our retailers, trained salespeople put their heart and soul into their work.

Scientific studies show that heterogeneous teams are more successful and sustainable than homogeneous groups. Culturally, diversity is also important to us. Our employees (as well as our retailers) have diverse social and national backgrounds. In the meantime, we are working at more and more locations with more and more nationalities and cultures. We appreciate the special contribution from each and every employee.

We want to grow, but only sustainably. For us, this means observing generally recognized principles of good corporate governance. We are also launching our sustainable platform Greenlocal in 2021, where we will offer sustainable products from selected sustainably focused brick and mortar retailers.

Wherever possible, we use environmentally friendly options in our processes. This doesn’t just apply to the packaging of our goods. We also like to use green shipping options like DHL GoGreen. We also do our best to reduce the return rate. We measure these rates very carefully and are always well below the industry average. This helps to reduce the number of parcels sent and thus also the environmental impact. By focusing on brick and mortar retailers, we are also reducing the land consumption that mail order companies cause with their large warehouses. This goes towards reducing urban sprawl and the struggle for vacant land near cities.

Greenlocal stands for more commitment and more sustainability. We want sustainability to be firmly established in our society. The idea arose from our commitment to greater sustainability. Both our partners’ and retailers’ brands are already sustainable, but have not been able to showcase this as prominently on our industry platforms. In 2021, the time will come: we are launching a platform where only sustainably focused brick and mortar retailers can advertise their environmentally as well as socially sustainable products.
Greenlocal will launch in 2021 and become an important part of The Platform Group. We believe that everyone can play their part in making the world a more sustainable place. Up to now, taking responsibility for a lifestyle that consumes fewer resources is still far too often seen as a purely personal decision. But it is up to companies to set the framework for sustainable lifestyles so that our vision of the future can become a reality, namely a good quality of life for people.
