We're Committed to Sustainable Practices
Sustainable Packaging
We encourage our suppliers to use catering trays, cutlery and napkins that are recyclable, compostable, or made from recycled sustainable resources.
Our sustainability survey asks suppliers to provide details on all of the equipment and packaging provided.
Locally Sourced Ingredients
Our sustainability survey asks suppliers to provide information of where their ingredients are sourced from.
We encourage everything to be sourced from local and vetted sustainable businesses.
Waste Management
We ask our suppliers to detail their processes on waste management: how they deal with any surplus food, how they deal with any by-products of food production, and managing disposal of any non-recyclable items.
We’re committed to making our world a safer, cleaner and sustainable place to live
We want to be part of the solution and one major way of achieving this is by working with our suppliers and catering partners to increase sustainability practices for all catered functions and events.
To help our customers make better, more sustainable choices, we have included a sustainability rating for our corporate caterers, in the form of green leaves.
This 5 leaf rating will be visible on our marketplace with the caterers’ menus.
