mindful of our
environment
Conscious seafood sourcing
Overfishing and other environmentally harmful fishing practices threaten habitats and future food stocks. Our diners have noticed, corporate South Africa has noticed – and they are demanding more responsible methods. Sourcing sassi approved fish for our menus is critical. Options that are home grown through the aquaponic initiatives such as tilapia make suitable and flavoursome replacement for other well-known lines.
Fish has a critical role to play in sustainable interventions aimed at tackling food insecurity and hunger, as well as ensuring that our planet’s resources aren’t depleted.
Fair trade
At bidvest catering services, we strive to procure from companies who, to the best of our knowledge, use responsible practices to support the safety and the rights of farmers, workers and fishermen, empower communities and promote ethical and sustainable trade.
Fairtrade is a third-party certifier that verifies that these companies’ products have been produced with respect for people and the plane
Waste management
Our aim is to create a zero waste to landfill solution within the food-service space.
We considering everything we procure, use and processes, as well as our need to give back to the earth in a re-usable way. Whether this is recycling single-use plastic that can be used for lap desks for schools or reducing the amount of water used in our kitchens, it all helps to create a sustainable future for the generations to come.
