In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Alice Kuepper from Winning Group. Alice landed her ‘dream job’ as Head of Sustainable Business and Corporate Social Responsibility at the home of Appliances Online and Winning Appliances in 2020.  The broad and far-reaching role includes goals such as championing a circular economy, ensuring good visibility on supply chain ethics and forging meaningful connections with First Nations communities.  It feels like destiny may have played a significant part in Alice’s career path.  Growing up living in different countries and societies, studying sociology and then being exposed to the progressive world of ecommerce. I met Alice when she was the General Manager at Online Retailer nearly ten years ago but had no idea that this was her background - it was really fun to see how it has all come together for her to find her purpose.  In this chat Alice shares how Winning Group tackles reverse logistics with a focus on sustainability, why slavery is not, sadly, a thing of the past and how businesses can map out a clear pathway to support reconciliation with a RAP.
