34 % of 1,000 consumers surveyed had trust in the brands they used
40 % of environmental claims were found to be false or misleading

And who can blame them for lack of trust ?
Another study by the International Consumer Protection Enforcement Network ( ICPEN ), which analysed almost 500 websites promoting online products and services across various sectors , including clothes , cosmetics , and food , found that 40 % of environmental claims were false or misleading .
Customers are looking for real data and authentic communication on action . And it ’ s time for Procurement leaders to lead the charge in giving it to them .
May we help in showing you the way ...
