Viewpoint: Improving efficiency and sustainability

Improving the efficiency and effectiveness of Specsavers’ global manufacturing and distribution (M&D) operations has always been at the heart of our philosophy and plans. Service has always been the cornerstone of our business, alongside a focus on cost to continue to support and deliver the ‘value proposition’.

Sustainability has been an increasing focus and today it is an integral part of the way we work. Our strategy covers three pillars – planet, people and communities. This supports key decision-making on areas such as investment in new equipment and facilities, ie does it use less energy and water; it is also a critical part of our learning and development activities.
