16th Strategic Trade Conference

On November 6, 2022, the 16th Strategic Trade Conference was held in Brdo pri Kranju titled “Green transformation in trade: Is sustainability (already) a trader's value?”

At the conference, they discussed where and how traders implement green transformation, how they respond to economic and environmental changes - including by changing business models, and how they pursue sustainable development in the broadest sense.

The conference was attended by several representatives of retailers, including Mercator, Petrol, Bauhaus, Aleja, Emil Frey, Sanpavlija, Merkur, Engrotuš, Spar Slovenia, and BTC. One of the most interesting expert contributions was provided by Mihela Hladin Wolfe, former director of environmental initiatives at Patagonia, which is known for its proactive work in the field of environmental protection.

Our funder and director Ladeja Godina Košir also participated in the program with the presentation "What changes when we commit to sustainability - supplier, retailer and customer in the new reality".
