2009 Retailer of the Year LONDON DRUGS

BC Hydro Power Smart and London Drugs have partnered on many successful initiatives in the past. London Drugs is pleased to partner with them again to bring you the third annual Team Power Smart Photo Contest.

Every business strives for excellent customer service. London Drugs takes that idea a step further by helping customers learn how to save money and the environment by making Power Smart choices. In fact, London Drugs recently became the first retailer in Canada to sell only ENERGY STAR® qualified fixtures.

Since October 2009, London Drugs offered 48 Power Smart Clinics, together with BC Hydro's Outreach team, educating over 2,620 customers on how to shop "green"—starting with the wide range of ENERGY STAR® lighting, and televisions sold in their stores. The company featured Power Smart products in over eight million flyers, plus their holiday catalogue and "What's the Green Deal?" web platform, which offers information on the environmental benefits of a wide range of products. Then, London Drugs helped consumers take the benefits home by offering Power Smart specials, beyond BC Hydro's incentives, during Power Smart Month.

Behind the scenes, London Drugs "walks the walk" with a massive program to recycle both internal corporate and consumer waste. They also work to make their own buildings more energy efficient through retrofits and by ensuring that new stores are designed and constructed to high efficiency levels.

London Drugs walks the walk by providing Green options for customers.
