WE PRIDE OURSELVES ON BEING A LEADING SUSTAINABLE CATERER. ENSURING OUR LOVE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT TRANSLATES TO HELPING REDUCE OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT, WE HAVE PUT IN PLACE A NUMBER OF INITIATIVES WHILE WE AIM TO BECOME FULLY CARBON NEUTRAL.
Bio degradable Packaging
Conventional Plastic is made from oil and oil as we all know is quite the pollutant. Oil based packaging that is not recycled will usually end up in landfill and dumps or even worse be washed out to sea.
Plastic packaging can also take up to thousands of years to degrade naturally, releasing poisonous toxins over time, these toxins can pollute our rivers, canals, harm our wildlife and scar our beautiful landscape. By switching to bio degradable and sustainable packaging that can be composted or recycled, we can not only reduce our impact on the environment but also reduce our carbon footprint.
Fairtrade Coffee
Most small-scale family farmers live in remote locations and lack access to credit, so they are vulnerable to middlemen who offer cash for their coffee at a fraction of its value. Fair Trade guarantees farmers a minimum price, and links farmers directly with importers, creating long-term sustainability. Through Fair Trade, farmers earn better incomes, allowing them to hold on to their land and invest in quality.
Locally Sourced Produce
Our locally sourced food supports local producers and the production of their crops. It alleviates the reliance on long distance transportation and refrigeration of foods that are grown thousands of miles away. We are proud to support Irish farmers and small scale businesses that supply quality fresh Irish produce.
Sustainable Fishing
With an ever expanding population, advanced fishing techniques and changing environment conditions, there is now a need more than ever before to ensure our fish resources are managed in a sustainable and ecological way. Supporting Pole and Line caught fish is a key element in protecting our oceans from over fishing and archaic fishing laws.
