Richard Walker has taken his father’s business in a new direction since taking the helm. A passionate believer in the good that all businesses can do, and the critical importance of their role in combatting environmental damage, he’s committed to initiatives including banning palm oil in own-brand products to waging war on plastic.

It’s created a lot of kickback and Richard has been on the end of some pretty stringent attacks. But he’s got broad shoulders. Join him and Mary as they talk business doing better and how supermarkets can contribute to lasting change.

Mary's new book, Rebuild: how to thrive in the new Kindness Economy is available to buy now.
