PONTE VEDRA, Fla. – July 16, 2024 – Digital Wave Technology proudly shares that CEO Lori Schafer has been published in the latest volume of Today’s Grocer. Her article, "Communicating Sustainability Efforts in an Omnichannel World," explores how brands can effectively communicate their eco-friendly initiatives to both in-store and online shoppers. 


In the piece, Ms. Schafer highlights the growing consumer demand for sustainability, citing Harvard Business Review research that shows a shift toward sustainable consumption. Brands that weave sustainability into every step of the product journey—from browsing to purchase to consumption—can build stronger customer connections and gain a competitive edge. Key points from her article include: 

  • Increasing demand for sustainability, particularly among Millennials and Generation Z.
