Sustainability and Customer Experience have been extensively developed independently in many countries by many researchers. Today, a new link is emerging between the two, yet it lacks a theoretical foundation. This chapter aims to highlight connections and gaps on which to build the new definition and framework of Sustainable Customer Experience (SCE). On the managerial side, this research is discovering that there are many initiatives applied by sustainable enterprises with the scope of stimulating a SCE. However, practitioners could understand that there are many other touch points where to improve their sustainable actions. To develop this chapter, we adopt a three-step research design: the first one is a structured literature review; the second is an analysis of twenty case studies; the third involves a customer-focused experiment.

Abstract
Sustainability and Customer Experience have been extensively developed independently in many countries by many researchers. Today, a new link is emerging between the two, yet it lacks a theoretical foundation. This chapter aims to highlight connections and gaps on which to build the new definition and framework of Sustainable Customer Experience (SCE). On the managerial side, this research is discovering that there are many initiatives applied by sustainable enterprises with the scope of stimulating a SCE. However, practitioners could understand that there are many other touch points where to improve their sustainable actions. To develop this chapter, we adopt a three-step research design: the first one is a structured literature review; the second is an analysis of twenty case studies; the third involves a customer-focused experiment.
