Petco ups its commitment to sustainability

Petco commits to increasing its assortment of sustainable pet products to 50% by the end of 2025.

The commitment to featuring sustainable pet products in 50% of its assortment builds on Petco’s significant environmental sustainability progress from 2020, including:

– Using 92% less plastic and 23% less cardboard in packaging, compared to online-only retailers by fulfilling online orders in our Petco Pet Care Centers, which we estimate eliminated 3.6 million pounds of carboard waste and 30,000 pounds of plastic waste in 2020 alone

– Upcycling 1.5 million plastic bottles into pet accessories with our “Started as a Bottle” program

– Eliminating 3.2 million pieces of packaging waste across Petco’s owned brand products
