LONDON – British retailer Marks and Spencer (M&S) has announced that it is to relaunch its Plan A sustainability strategy in the new year and will “reinvigorate” the programme to put it “back at the centre of our customer story”.
The relaunched Plan A will be overseen by a newly established ESG (environmental, social and governance) board committee, co-chaired by M&S non-executive director Tamara Ingram and member Sapna Sood.
Company chairman Archie Norman, who’ll also join the committee, said: “Tamara’s deep understanding of the customer and Sapna’s experience of leading global supply chains and previous board experience in sustainability will ensure the committee provides robust oversight and challenge. The committee’s first task will be to agree a timetable for the Plan A relaunch next year.”
