Shoppers used to leave shopping carts along sidewalks or parking areas after loading groceries unto their cars or taxis. Scattered carts obstruct cars and pedestrians causing inconvenience. SM Supermalls put up Cart Parks where shoppers can properly leave shopping carts after using it.
By encouraging patrons to return carts after use, SM Supermalls aims to instill a sense of responsibility and consideration among shoppers, fostering a culture of respect and cooperation within its premises.
Diners in mall food courts tend to leave plates and utensils on the table after eating, but SM Supermalls is trying to change such habit by encouraging cleanliness through CLAYGO. This initiative is implemented in all SM Food Courts and Food Halls nationwide, encouraging patrons to clean up their own tables, disposing of their trash properly, and keeping the dining area clean for the next users.
