The Giant Company announced a new partnership as part of its continued commitment to sustainable retailing and healing the planet. Online grocery customers can now access an easy-to-use environmental and social impact rating system powered by HowGood.

“Our new partnership with HowGood reinforces our commitment to healing the planet - whether it’s through greater product transparency or reducing waste,” said Manuel Haro, vice president of strategy and communications, The Giant Company.

HowGood analyzes each product ingredient against environmental and social criteria, including farming practices, treatment of animals, labor conditions and chemical use. Customers can also search products by specific sustainable attributes. The more leaves a product has, the more sustainable it is, making it easy for customers to make informed choices when they shop.

Other sustainable practices employed by The Giant Company include the EPA-recognized food rescue program, Meat the Needs, plastic bag recycling and plastic reduction, a solar field and bee pollinator habitat at its Carlisle corporate headquarters, reducing emissions through tree-planting with GreenPrint, installing energy-efficient fixtures and reducing refrigerant emissions in all stores, and providing customers with sustainable products such as coffee, tea and seafood.
