Elimination of plastic bags at checkouts on March 1, 2023
February 1, 2023

Starting March 1, 2023, we will be eliminating single-use plastic bags from checkouts at all Lake Country Co-op locations. We are committed to ensuring the sustainability of our communities for generations to come. In 2022, together with FCL, we signed the Canada Plastic Pact (CPP). The CPP has set clear, actionable targets, one being that businesses take measures to eliminate unnecessary plastic packaging. 

Why are we doing this?

Sustainability is a key opportunity for Lake Country Co-op and our future. We are committed to ensuring the sustainability of our communities for generations to come. Sustainable practices help us make better decisions for our members, customers, team members, and partners, ensuring the long-term success of our company. We are proud of the actions we have taken to address our role in sustainable development and look forward to continued progress in the year ahead.

Please read our FAQ for additional information. 

We have many reusable options available to suit your shopping needs. Have a look next time you are in one of our locations. If your local Lake Country Co-op location does not have one of the options below, please ask a Team Leader if possible to bring it in.
