WINNER: Caledonian Produce
PROJECT: Sustainability in Action
The Project
Inspiring those at the ‘sharp’ end of the business to do more with less, our ‘Sustainability in Action’ campaign has transformed our approach to waste, delivering outstanding results. Achieving zero waste-to-landfill as a baseline, our objective is on actual waste reduction and reuse opportunities through improved efficiencies and changing our standard system and processes . Since Sustainability in Action’s launch in August 2016, Caledonian Produce has seen an increase of over 34% of previously considered waste product going on for further positive re-use; with surplus food and ingredients going on to benefit the local community via a network of social enterprises and charities.
