LEAN AND GREEN - BEST BUSINESS PRACTICES

WE ARE COMMITTED TO REDUCING OUR WASTE, PRACTICING POLLUTION PREVENTION AND CONSERVING ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES WHEREVER POSSIBLE.

While it may be hip or trendy to talk about how "green" our business is, we actually talk the talk and walk the walk when it comes to reducing our waste footprint and incorporating green business practices.

Since our inception, The Catering Company has been committed to being “green.” From compostable catering trays and plant starch utensils to specifying recycled paper stock for our box lunch containers, we’ve incorporated green practices as a way of doing business.

We have already replaced our plastic disposable cutlery, plates, cups, containers, boxes and napkins with plant starch, biodegradable, or compostable products. Our goal is to use 100% sustainable replacements!

WE COMPOST 100% OF OUR FOOD WASTE.
In doing our part to keep it green, we recycle all food residuals, demonstrating our commitment to the environment. Thanks to our partners in this endeavor, Cedar Grove, we have significantly reduced our contribution to landfills and decreased our waste footprint.
KIRKLAND'S GREEN BUSINESS PROGRAM.
We are a proud to be a certified Green Business. As a participant in the Kirkland Green Business Program, developed in 2007 to recognize licensed Kirkland-based businesses for their green practices, we have earned endorsements for our water saving & waste reduction programs.
Sustainable practices.
We foster a genuine commitment to environmental and sustainable practices. We believe companies, like individuals, must assume their share of responsibility as stewards of the Earth. While our approach is always evolving, our ultimate goal is to provide our customers with the highest quality foods and to always implement the most effective ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
