Dear Valued Retailer,
In recognition of National Bulk Foods Week, October 16-22, 2011, the Bulk is Green Council (BIG), is calling on respected food retailers such as yourself to take part in a fun and free promotional opportunity. Founded in 2008, BIG is a research and advocacy organization dedicated to increasing consumer, retailer and grocer awareness of the environmental and economic benefits of buying natural and organic food in the bulk aisle of the grocery store.
In a tough economy, your customers are paying close attention to what they buy at the grocery store. Shopping in bulk offers them the opportunity to save anywhere from 35 to 96 percent, reduce food waste by buying only a pinch or a pound, and decrease their carbon footprint by consuming limited packaging. Additional information and resources are available at www.BulkisGreen.org.
What: National Bulk Foods Week - Celebrating all the advantages of buying organic food in bulk
When: Saturday, October 16th through Saturday, October 22nd
