Industry Innovation:  Green Light: How Green is Raley's
Shining the spotlight on all that's green and good.

How Green is Raley’s?
We're the first retailer in California to use a new exhaust filtration system that makes our trucks the cleanest Class 8 Diesel trucks in day-to-day operation. We're testing this system on 20 of our trucks to help the manufacturer earn a certification that will allow older trucks throughout the state - in all industries - to reduce filter emissions that pollute the air.

How Green is Raley’s?
Each year, more than 680 tons of waste per store are recycled and diverted from eventual disposal in area landfills through a recycling program developed by Raley's in 1995. That's about 94,000 tons of waste being recycled every year!

"At Raley's Family of Fine Stores, we feel very strongly that we have an important responsibility to be exceptionally good stewards of our earth, and to be good partners with our governmental agencies charged with the oversight of the environment," says Bill Coyne, Raley's President and CEO.
