Description

Richard is best known for his fight against palm oil and single-use plastic, but there is way more than environmental activism to his CV.



As Chairman of the Iceland supermarket chain, Richard looks after more than 1000 outlets with a combined turnover of more than £4 Billion.



When not in business mode, he can be found catching waves or climbing mountains.



In this episode, Kenton catches up with Richard after a day of ice climbing in Norway. The pair talk about the family business, his passion for sustainability, and how a company can live in harmony with the environment.
