Watsons teams up with Unilever and Plastic Bank for the Planet
Top health and beauty retailer teams with multinational consumer company Unilever and social enterprise Plastic Bank in the efforts to protect and preserve the environment.
Through Watsons, Unilever launched Gift for Good in 2021, offering shoppers sustainable beauty products.
These include the hair and skin product brand Love, Beauty, and Planet.
Every purchase of a product from the Gift for Good campaign supported the fight against plastic waste. This is while improving the lives of the collectors.
Watsons also established a partnership with Plastic Bank in 2021, which resulted in 833,000 plastic bottles saved from the ocean. This is 16,700 kg of ocean-bound plastic collected.
Viki Encarnacion, PR and Sustainability Director of Watsons Philippines, said,
“This is a joint collaboration between Watsons, Unilever, and our customers toward sustainability. Certainly, it has a massive impact on protecting the environment. By sharing the vision to be a purposeful business, we are able to build a healthier environment and a more sustainable society.”
With the rising plastic pollution problem, Plastic Bank works to keep plastic out of oceans.
This is while building ethical recycling ecosystems for coastal communities. It benefits communities as this initiative invites people to join the plastic collection program in exchange for basic family necessities. These are food, clean drinking water, and financial help.
Plastic Bank has given livelihood to over 1,500 people in the Philippines while creating a positive impact on the environment.
Indeed, Watsons’ sustainability programs, encouraging Filipinos to be a part of a positive impact of helping the environment has become more attainable, and visioning a sustainable society is now possible.
