Protecting our natural environment
Aramark’s commitment to trusted hospitality inspires us to continuously improve the way our operations interact with the planet.
From the food we serve and the products we use to the way we operate kitchens and facilities - we aim to proactively manage our environmental performance. As a leading global food service provider, our scale presents challenges and opportunities. To embrace this, we focus our efforts on waste, climate, and circularity.
Waste, Climate, and Circularity
We minimize waste through prevention, recovery, and recycling. Optimized procedures and food management practices accompany strategic partnerships and collaborative dialogue to avoid waste across our operations.
We aim to reduce emissions and risk through innovation and efficiency. Our ambitious climate strategy features responsible actions to work towards achieving our Science Based Target initiative (SBTi)-validated near-term and net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets.
We limit single use through replacement, reuse, and redesign. We frame our efforts around the Zero Waste International Alliance (ZWIA) Zero Waste Hierarchy while developing partnerships to promote the delivery of a more circular economy.
Training and partnerships
Aramark creates innovative sustainability training and information resources to engage our people. We develop training tools for a range of audiences and experience levels to best connect with our on-site teams and customers.
Our Mark This! podcast provides an opportunity for Aramark’s in-house sustainability experts to share their knowledge. Check out Sustainability Myths and Collaborative Culinary.
Our one-page Green Briefs cover topics such as cardboard recycling, composting, food recovery, waste and recycling source separation, energy and water, and fleet emissions reduction.
We connect with industry partners through pre-competitive engagements, panel discussions, and thought leadership opportunities, including:
