Bergmeyer+ begins at the most fundamental level—helping retailers align their overarching purpose and mission with their store design sustainability goals.
Our vision for Bergmeyer+ is clear: to empower retailers to make a positive difference in the world through sustainable practices. Bergmeyer is excited to partner with sustainability visionary Annie Bevan and the team of strategic and technical experts in material sustainability at Parallel (formerly Sustainability Management & Strategy Collaborative), to reimagine the future of retail, one where sustainability is not just a buzzword but a transformative force for good.
Key Areas of Focus: The Three Big C’s Bergmeyer+ benchmarks and evaluates the three big “C’s” - carbon, chemistry (toxicity), and circularity (waste) of current Store Fixture programs for retail brands based on information provided by the client, the client’s fixture vendors, all the way down to the vendors’ raw materials suppliers, providing retailers with recommendations and a roadmap for optimizing climate-positive change that aligns with their corporate sustainability and ESG goals.
