Sustainable canteen food:
7 helpful tips for employers
Today, sustainable nutrition is more than just a short-lived trend. More and more people are consciously opting for a balanced and healthy diet. When it comes to employee catering, entrepreneurs must also ask themselves how they can integrate sustainable canteen catering into their company.
Here are 7 tips on how you can establish sustainable canteen catering in your company.
1. regional and seasonal offer
Purchasing regional and seasonal products not only reduces transportation distances and thus CO² emissions, but also supports regional agriculture. With seasonal ingredients, you can offer your employees fresh and regional dishes in harmony with nature.
2. choose organic products
Look for organic products that are grown without synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. Organic food is not only better for the environment, but also healthier for your employees. Look for appropriate certifications to guarantee the quality of the products.
3. less meat, more plant-based alternatives
Another important factor is the user-friendliness of the machine. The vending machine should be easy to use and offer clear menu navigation. FELFEL Vending machines are easy to operate and the menus can be accessed and paid for conveniently via the FELFEL app. In addition, FELFEL takes care of the daily filling and maintenance of the fridges, relieving you of organizational work. Emptying the recycling boxes and recycling the packaging are also part of the service.
4. REDUCE FOOD WASTE
Compare the costs and services of different food vending machines. Take into account not only the purchase price, but also the running costs for maintenance, filling and energy consumption. FELFEL offers a transparent price structure with a monthly service fee that includes all services. This makes FELFEL a cost-effective alternative to conventional canteens.
5. USE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PACKAGING
Avoid single-use plastic and use environmentally friendly packaging. Biodegradable or reusable containers are a sustainable alternative. Encourage and reward the use of your own reusable containers.
6. use energy-efficient kitchen appliances
Look out for energy-efficient appliances when equipping your canteen. Modern kitchen appliances with a good energy efficiency rating consume less electricity and water, thus helping to reduce your ecological footprint. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the appliances also ensures efficient operation.
7. anchoring sustainability in the team
Promote awareness of sustainability in your team. Training courses and workshops can help to deepen knowledge of sustainable practices and increase employee commitment. Make sustainability an integral part of your corporate philosophy and exemplify these values on a daily basis.
