Nisa-Today's trials waste packaging service

Tuesday, 21 October 2008
 
Nisa-Today's is to trial a packaging waste service from the start of next year, something the company said will be free of charge for its members.

It said the service will be tested at 35 members in the north-east area - with unwanted packaging being picked up and then delivered to Scunthorpe for bundling and recycling.

Managing director of central distribution trading and logistics John Sharpe said that time and money can be saved at the symbol group's members.

"As a group we are also committed to reducing our impact on the environment and this is one of the many methods we are exploring to do so now and for the future," he commented.

The firm said that its ambient warehouse based in Scunthorpe was the first in the UK to utilise a Green Travel Plan.

Last week, Nisa-Today's group member David Sands revealed that pre-tax operating profits jumped to £1.06m in 2007.

The brand buying group also joined the Retail of Alcohol Standards Group.
