Report reveals prominence of LEED certification among major retailers
By leveraging LEED, retailers effectively communicate their values to consumers and employees, while also reducing energy costs and minimizing waste.
The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), Washington, D.C., released a new report, “LEED in Motion: Retail,” showing the prevalence of LEED certification in retail spaces around the world. For example, LEED is used in more than 12,500 retail locations globally.
“Now, perhaps more than ever before, consumers demand transparency and responsibility from the brands they support,” says Mahesh Ramanujam, president and CEO. “The retail sector is no exception, and many retailers recognize the importance of developing healthy, sustainable spaces that both delight their customers and support the larger community. LEED provides these businesses with a powerful tool to meet their commitments and to attract consumers.”
