The circular economy presents retailers with a host of exciting new opportunities, ranging from new business models and revenue streams to stronger, longer-lasting customer relationships. This panel will explore the potential opportunities for retailers in the circular economy through the lens of real-world pilot programs being conducted in both North America and Europe. This would be framed in the context of the broader transformation being felt throughout retail and its ecosystem including vendors, shippers, landlords and other stakeholders.
