Introducing Green Retailer magazine - and eco-friendly displays

There are so many companies, retailers, manufactuers, etc. getting into the "green" movement. I'll be covering greenwashing in a later post because that's a separate subject, but for those retailers interested in dipping their toes into the eco-friendly movement, even if they aren't "green" retailers, can take a page from a new magazine called Green Retailer.


While this magazine is really geared to assist those retailers who are eco-friendly, there is no reason any retailer, gift or otherwise, would not benefit from reading this magazine. It's well-written, the photographs are great, and you'll get a nugget or two to help your business.


I was lucky enough to be asked to photograph some eco-friendly visual merchandise displays for this inaugural issue - here's the link to see the entire magazine: http://digital.giftshopmag.com/specialtyretail/9/. My photos are on page 42 and you can see a sample of the page on this post.


Supporting and purchasing eco-friendly and fair trade products are one option - but don't forget there are so many other ways you can do your part to help the environment!

Until next time,
