New Online Sustainability Bootcamp Delivered by Steve Lister 

Founder of SteveLister.com

 

For over 20 years, I've been at the forefront of sustainability in the retail marketing activation sector. I've had the privilege of working with global brands, retailer partners and supply chain partners, helping them transform their practices and adopt more sustainable approaches.

My focus has been on all areas of retail print marketing, point of sale, display design, material selection, packaging and end of life recycling —areas where I believe I have made a significant difference. I've always seen sustainability, impact and profitability as interconnected.

Over the last 10 years I have been the Head of Global Sustainability for POPAI UK & Ireland.

I'm proud to have been recognised as one of RETHINK Retail's Top Retail Experts in 2024 & 2025. This recognition is a testament to the work I've done and the positive impact I’ve made to Global Brands, Retailers & Supply Chain Partners.

I'm committed to continuing to drive change and inspire & educate client teams to embrace a more sustainable future in sign & display.

Sustainability Bootcamp Delivered by Steve Lister - Founder SteveLister.com

I’m passionate about helping businesses thrive through sustainability.

I'm Steve, a seasoned sustainability consultant with years of experience guiding global brands in implementing impactful, eco-friendly strategies. I specialise in transforming complex sustainability concepts into actionable steps that drive both profit and brand loyalty.

Together, I have created this free training to share the latest trends in retail and visual merchandising. My approach combines industry insights with practical advice to help you stay ahead in a rapidly evolving sustainability environment.

Make it Happen are a totally unique resource to the Sign and Print Industry. Offering training, consultancy and trade only product sales.
 
Industry award winning for Customer Support at The Sign Awards 2025 and Supplier of the Year 2022 and 2024.  
 
Historically, our industry has not relied on training to any great level; except for selected apprenticeships, it is fair to say that the training available to our industry has been minimal.
 
The benefits of training are multiple, but in the sign and print industry it is just not something we have traditionally invested in. This is typically because ‘we know what we know’ and it has worked perfectly fine so far; however, training improves workforce confidence and competency, which in turn provides your customers with a better service and increased profitability.
 
The opportunities that training can offer are not limited to materials and products, there is benefit to sharing ideas in a group and talking through experiences.
 
Demonstrating that you invest in training will help you gain the reputation for being up to date with the latest materials, products and techniques. This will also show your workforce your commitment in their personal and professional development.
 
Our Mission
To expand on current knowledge and encourage new ideas and practices to enhance the services our clients provide
 
Our Vision
To connect the sign and print industry at all levels and encourage continuous development
