Katrina Shum leads Lush Cosmetics’ sustainability program across five manufacturing facilities, two distribution centers and 250 retail shops in North America.
She works closely with cross-functional teams across the business and supply chain to develop strategies that integrate and elevate sustainability initiatives through procurement, operational processes and the built environment.
Areas of focus include GHG reductions, zero waste, packaging and circularity, water conservation and renewable energy/regeneration. Prior to joining Lush, Katrina helped build the sustainability program for a major food service provider impacting 500+ higher education institutions.
In the year 2020, Earth Day looked a little different. We have taken activism online and indoors. We virtually sat down with Katrina Shum from our Sustainability team to answer Lushies' questions about Earth Day, what we can expect to see in the future environmentally speaking and much more.
