Frequently Asked Questions

Sustainable Retail Index (SRI) is an annual benchmarking survey and report offering customized, actionable, and exclusive sustainability insights to transform your retail business.

Launching this year on the fifth anniversary of APTIM’s Sustainable Sport Index, SRI will offer an analysis of sustainability best practices based on responses from leading retailers. Companies are encouraged to participate regardless of their current stage of sustainability planning, as the insights gained can help inform a strategic roadmap for improving environmental performance related to:

  • Energy and Greenhouse Gases
  • Environmental Resilience
  • Supply Chain Sustainability
  • Waste Management and Diversion

In addition to a publicly available benchmarking report providing an anonymized state of the industry, participating companies will receive a complimentary individual report. These customized reports will compare the participant’s performance and responses to those of their closest peers.

 

The Value We Promise

Sustainability teams at leading retail companies are often overwhelmed with questionnaires and disclosures, so what makes the Sustainable Retail Index (SRI) worth your time?

  • Customized Reports: Our individual reports support your ability to build a business case for new investments and strategic priorities with leadership by utilizing direct and specific peer benchmarking.
  • Actionable Insights: Our questions emphasize implementation rather than outcomes. While other sustainability reporting and ratings systems primarily assess a company’s broad impacts, risks, and opportunities, the SRI evaluates the specific practices necessary to produce better results.
  • Exclusive Features: While all survey data featured in our public benchmarking report is aggregated and anonymized, we invite participants to submit case studies of initiatives that may be highlighted as examples of best practices.
