We work responsibly with suppliers and employees to ensure the very best service is provided with minimal impact to our surroundings. Being a small company, it is hard to operate completely green systems throughout; however, we are doing our best and ensure all the suppliers we employ have a similar way of thinking.

At Social Pantry we strive to decrease food waste and our plastic consumption. Nobody’s perfect, but every little helps

• Recycling in place at all sites for all cardboard, glass, oil and food waste.
• Responsible packaging suppliers are used for all event and café packaging needs.
• Reducing food waste is a top priority of ours and we’re pretty strict about it. We are still dreaming of owning a gorgeous gardening patch and using food waste as compost…it is on the wish list. Watch this space…
• On site compositing is now fully underway at our production kitchen with our new on site food digester.
• Old coffee granules are given to a local allotment to feed the compost worms. We are also looking into introducing a wormery at our central production kitchen.
• We train all our staff to be responsible for their actions and ensure that we work efficiently as a team with the same goal in mind.
• Our Zero Waste attitude in all our kitchens ensures there is minimal food waste. We develop menus that have zero waste menu items to prevent as much as possible from going into the bin/compost heap.
• We are building our first Green House ready for spring of 2021 at our central production kitchen and we are extremely excited! Although we cannot grow all our food just yet we will be making a small difference.
