Lidl has unveiled plans to roll out a new traffic light labelling system in key categories for sustainability across its 105 Scottish stores from September.
As one of the UK’s first retailers to launch the trial, Lidl will apply "Eco-Score" labelling to over 50 of its own-label products including teas, coffees and hot chocolate as well as supporting this with wider communication in its stores.
Eco-Score uses open-source data to independently grade products on their sustainability credentials and assigns a colour code ranging from green A - low impact - to red E - high impact.
