Sustainability

Sustainability at Verkkokauppa.com

At Verkkokauppa.com, responsibility and transparency guide everything we do. We support responsible consumption, and making long-lasting choices is key. We support our customers in making the right purchasing decisions, for example by providing transparent information about the products we sell. We help our customers find the most suitable products for their needs — by selling what they need. We believe in our community and aim to give all our employees the opportunity to make a difference in our journey forward.

The retail sector, and the electronics sector in particular, is facing a number of pressing sustainability issues: the ever-increasing consumption of natural resources, the lack of human rights at different stages of the value chain, greenhouse gas emissions and other negative environmental impacts, the inadequate repairability and upgradability of products, and the need to improve the recoverability of electronic waste. These are all global challenges but also opportunities that we are working on with our partners and other actors.

We know there is always room for improvement in the area of sustainability. We are committed to acting responsibly and taking steps in the right direction, every day.
