Supermarket giant Sainsbury's has announced a ban that will be implemented in every single supermarket in the UK - including Sainsbury's Local stores. The retailer's ban will impact own-brand items, and will be noticed by shoppers.
It's the latest move by the supermarket to try and eliminate as much plastic waste as possible. Supmarket giants like Aldi and Tesco are making similar moves.
The ban will come into place in 2023. From March, the supermarket 's own-label dips including guacamole, tzatziki and sour cream & chive will be sold without their usual plastic lids.
