Our Impact with Tree Canada

Tree Canada is the only national non-profit organization dedicated to planting and nurturing trees in rural and urban environments across the country. Their goal is to inspire, educate and enable Canadians to address climate change and integrate sustainable practices into their communities. To date, thanks to our generous customers, we have raised over $1 million for Tree Canada, resulting in the planting of over 240,000 trees together across Ontario. From April 10 – 22, you can donate alongside your in-store purchase to support growing better places to live across the province.

Lightweight Glass Bottle Program

The Lightweight Glass Bottle Program launched in 2010 and focused on 750 mL volume wine bottles. Given the success of the program, we have expanded to include 1,000 to 1,500 mL glass bottles as we continue our sustainability journey. Lightweight glass provides ergonomic benefits for our retail and supply chain employees through reduced case-weight handling, reduces carbon emissions through more sustainable distribution, and supports and recognizes sustainability efforts by our suppliers and partners in the beverage alcohol industry. With over 98 per cent of products within the Lightweight Glass Bottle Program meeting the requirements today, we have reduced annual waste by more than six million kilograms.

 

Our Lightweight Glass Bottle Program has had national and international environmental influence: many wineries have adopted lighter bottles to supply the LCBO, and other liquor boards have followed our lead, introducing the policy into their practices. Our accomplishment is a credit to our partnership with our trade suppliers, and we thank all our partners who have worked together with us to evolve product packaging.
