Coles Green Credentials?

While Coles and Woolworths have been fighting over their green and sustainable credentials through campaigns, such as Green Fish Stamps and hormone free beef, a not so public action has been occurring.

Over the past few months I have seen more refill pack products being deleted from our local Coles store, which in my mind is contrary to their "greening" actions.

So on the one hand Coles are telling us about their strong sustainability credentials, while on the other they are forcing their consumers to purchase full product, rather than a refill option.

As a consumer I find this frustrating and what is more concerning is the demands these retailers are placing on suppliers to improve their sustainability.  This smacks of hypocrisy.
