Bol.com adds sustainable products store

Ahold Delhaize-owned Dutch online retailer Bol.com has launched a store that only sells sustainable items. 

This currently features 6,500 items with independent sustainability labels which have been validated by Milieu Centraal. Plans are in place to extend the range. A climate neutral shipping option will launch in 2025.

Huub Vermeulen, bol.com General Manager, says: “Together with our colleagues, suppliers and sales partners, we have ensured that the largest responsible assortment is brought together at bol.com well before the holiday season. With a special online store we make it easier for our customers to be able to choose from a more sustainable option when looking for a gift.”

“We realise that 6,500 articles are a modest first step compared to our total assortment. We hope to be able to expand the responsible range with tens of thousands of items in the coming years. In 2022, Bol.com wants to offer a sustainable alternative in every category where possible, from children’s clothing to personal care items.”
