The Changing Green Consumer Marketplace

The Changing Green Consumer Marketplace

The Changing Consumer Marketplace, the third webinar in the Sustainable Brands Boot Camp, provided up-to-date insights into the changing green consumer profile and what motivates consumers to buy green in today’s economy. Companies can use this market research to craft green product value propositions and make green profile decisions. Key takeaways? Green pricing premiums won’t work in a post-recession economy and sustainability has reached a tipping point into mainstream.

Standard Announced for Environmental Personal Care Products

Even through consumers are more eco aware and seek to purchase green products, it has become increasingly difficult to do so as greenwashing affects 98% of products with ‘all-natural’ and ‘organic’ labelling. Shoppers are confused and frustrated by false and misleading claims and indecipherable ingredient lists on labels. With this in mind, Green Seal has developed a standard to help consumers identify what is really green and what isn’t when shopping the personal care aisle.
