New Zealand has become the first country in the world to ban the use of disposable thin plastic bags in supermarkets, which are commonly used to wrap fresh products such as fruits and vegetables. This means that New Zealand supermarkets have banned all plastic bags.
The report said that the above measures came into effect on the 1st and are part of the New Zealand government's ban on disposable plastic bags. After the New Zealand government banned thicker plastic shopping bags in 2019, some customers have already brought their own shopping bags into supermarkets.
