How to Integrate Sustainability into Planograms?

4. Data-Driven Planning
• Utilize sales and inventory data to create planograms that
accurately reflect consumer demand.
• Since customers are increasingly drawn to eco-conscious
brands, grouping products based on various categories can
make it easier for them to find what they need.
• It reduces the time they spend searching for and handling
products, reducing the risk of damage or spills.
• For example, place all cleaning products together in one
zone with clearly labeled signs indicating eco-friendly
options.

5. • Encourage suppliers to use sustainable
packaging materials that are recyclable,
biodegradable, or made from post-consumer
waste.
• Consider minimizing excessive packaging for
promotional displays.
• For example, encourage suppliers to switch
from plastic to paper or compostable packaging
for their products.
Implement Eco-Friendly
Products

6. • Optimize shelf space to prevent overcrowding and
wastage of valuable display areas.
• It allows each product to stand out, making it
easier for customers to make choices and
reducing the chances of products going unnoticed
or expiring.
• For example, instead of displaying ten different
variations of the same product, offer the most
popular or eco-friendly options.
Minimalist Approach to
Planograms

7. Use
• Use end caps and promotional displays to highlight sustainable and eco-friendly
products, drawing attention to their benefits.
Create

cleaning products, or energy-efficient light bulbs.

such as being recyclable, made from recycled materials, or having eco-
certifications.
Place
• Place labels next to products indicating their eco-friendly attributes, such as ‘Made
from 100% recycled materials’ or ‘Biodegradable packaging.’
