In a continued commitment to sustainable retailing, Reliance Retail has renewed its strategic partnership with Mumbai-based waste management company Green Practices. The collaboration aims to enhance retail waste management by leveraging innovative solutions that minimize environmental impact and promote responsible consumption.

Since the partnership began in 2019, Reliance Retail and Green Practices have implemented advanced segregation, composting, and recycling systems across 45+ Reliance Smart stores and 28 Sahkari Bhandar outlets. This initiative has processed over 4.8 million tonnes of waste to date, averaging more than 77,000 tonnes per month, significantly reducing landfill dependency.

Reflecting on the partnership, Vinay Adhye, Vice President and Business Head at Reliance Retail, stated, “Sustainability is at the core of our business philosophy. At Reliance, we are committed to minimizing our environmental impact while maximizing operations. Our partnership with Green Practices is about redefining responsible retailing. Together, we hope to demonstrate that sustainability and operational efficiency can go hand in hand.”

Mana Shah, Founder of Green Practices, emphasized the initiative’s impact, saying, “Our partnership with Reliance Retail has been a powerful example of how strategic associations can drive meaningful environmental change. We are integrating circular economy principles into retail operations, and therefore transforming waste into valuable resources. Through this, we hope to inspire industry-wide change.”

As sustainability takes center stage in business operations, Reliance Retail’s partnership with Green Practices sets a benchmark for responsible waste management in urban India.
