Carrefour has already introduced its own redemption system: here are the experience
Carrefour launched its own redemption system in 150 Carrefour City stores in Paris, in collaboration with Coca-Cola, Heineken and Citeo.
The purpose of the move is to encourage customers to reduce the environmental impact of single-use packaging, the company explains to ESM.
Carrefour City stores offer five products in reusable glass packaging: Coca-Cola Regular (1L), Coca-Cola Without Sugar (1L); carbonated mineral water (1L); non-carbonated mineral water (1L) and Gallia beer (33 cl).
Customers can now return these empty bottles to one of the 150 stores and get their deposit back (€0.20 for large bottles, €0.10 for small ones).
“We take the bottles back to the warehouse, then send them to the partners’ factories, where they are washed, refilled, and then put back on the shelves”
– says the company.
