Retail Sustainability Excellence Awards

October 28, 2026

Canada’s retail industry is redefining what it means to operate responsibly. The Retail Sustainability Excellence Awards recognize the organizations leading that charge: those driving measurable impact, building credible programs, and proving that sustainable retail is scalable retail.

Presented by the Retail Council of Canada, this awards program elevates best-in-class sustainability initiatives across retailers, brand owners, and the broader supply chain. Aligned with the core themes of the RCC Retail Sustainability Conference, categories span circular economy, EPR performance, data and transparency, and decarbonization — the issues shaping the future of Canadian retail.

The Awards recognize sustainability leadership demonstrated during 2025. While multi-year initiatives are encouraged, submissions should emphasize the achievements and measurable impacts realized in 2025.
