Amazon joins EOCA as first online retailer
The European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA) has announced the membership of its first online retailer, Amazon, after being approached by the retail giant at OutDoor last July.
A senior executive told EOCA: “Amazon offers its customers the broadest selection of sports and outdoor products, giving enthusiasts the tools and kit they require for their outdoor passions. As part of the industry, it was only natural for us to join the collaborative effort to put back into the environment our customers value so much."
Tanya Bascombe, joint general manager of EOCA, said she is thrilled. "Amazon is an extremely well-known brand, used by many of our members as a platform to sell their products. Getting involved in the outdoor industry’s only conservation association shows that Amazon is taking its responsibilities to the longevity of this sector seriously and we look forward to working with them over the coming years.”
