— Shoppers who click the "buy" button on Walmart 's website and pick up items curbside will soon spot a difference: new packaging.
"It's about making sustainability the everyday choice for our customers," said Jane Ewing, Walmart's senior vice president of sustainability.
Walmart wants to reduce packaging as online sales become a bigger part of its business.
Other retailers are trying to cut down on packaging and cater to customers who care about sustainability, too.
Amazon has also used more made-to-fit packaging after investing two years ago in CMC, a company that makes the packaging machine.
