Sustainability
SUSTAINABILITY
As a long standing Sydney catering business, in operation since 2004, we recognise we have a part to play in minimising environment harm.
We will make every effort to ensure that our impact on the environment is for the better of our planet’s future, wherever possible in our business practices.
Locally Sourced
We contribute to sustainability through buying our produce and ingredients as locally as possible.
This ensures we have the freshest ingredients available and also reduces carbon emissions by minimising long distance travel by suppliers.
Product & Produce
We use ethically and locally sourced products where possible including;
Organic, Fair trade and Rain forest Alliance certified coffee, cocoa and tea products from Santa Vittoria
Direct Fresh Produce who are a family owned and operated business, supporting local producers wherever possible
Wood’s Butchery who source directly from Australian farmers, supporting local producers of chemical and hormone free meats and poultry
Packaging
We contribute to the ethos of Reduce Reuse Recycle where ever possible by choosing packaging materials that are eco friendly.
All lunch boxes & catering tray bases are made from durable, biodegradable, compostable, recyclable cardboard
Catering tray lids with a transparent PLA lid are industrially compostable
Disposable cutlery is made from plants, not oils & are industrially compostable
Individual hot meals are provided in containers made from rapidly renewable sugarcane pulp that are home compostable
ReUse
We offer all clients the option of washable, ceramic, reusable platters instead of disposable containers at no hire cost, for all drop off catering orders.
Linen napkins are also available as an alternative to paper disposables.
Recycle
Within our business we recycle wherever possible to reduce land fill.
Any food orders that are cancelled last minute where the food has already been prepared, we will always donate these foods to local shelters (where suitable) within the community.
Reduce
We are mindful of energy and utility consumption and minimise the use of paper, water, electricity and gas where ever possible.
Our production kitchen and office space in Artarmon has a 58kw solar system to facilitate 60% solar electricity.
Our People
Proudly an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the grounds of gender, age, race, religion, marital status, sexuality or physical difference.
We embrace and respect the diversity within our workforce which represents a wide range of individuals.
