Nottingham Trent University, known for its commitment to sustainability, leverages Amazon Business to enhance its sustainable procurement initiatives. As Claire Davies, the Sustainable Procurement Manager, highlights, the university's focus aligns with global sustainability goals, emphasising the importance of environmentally responsible practices for today’s students. Amazon Business facilitates NTU's journey towards its ambitious net-zero carbon goal by 2040 by offering sustainable product options and listening to the unique needs of the higher education sector. This partnership includes prioritising products from local East Midlands suppliers, which aids in reducing carbon emissions by minimising transportation distances. By integrating sustainability certificates into their purchasing decisions, NTU is set to significantly boost their sustainable purchasing, showcasing a successful model of collaboration between the university and Amazon Business.

“I would recommend Amazon Business. It's helping Nottingham Trent University to support sustainable procurement and help us meet our net zero carbon goals to be net zero by 2040.”
