Mar 24    Greener Restaurants
What is Green Food Service? Food service customers nationwide take sustainability into account when choosing a place to dine and food service operators, from QSR chains to fine dining, are hearing the call and responding. Customers are asking for locally sourced food, environmentally responsible waste handling, a reduction in pre-consumer food waste, energy efficiency, water conservation, and green buildings. But, where do you start, how do you get useful information and how do your customers know that you are implementing sustainability? These are all challenges for the food service operator. Fortunately, there are a number of different resources to help guide you including local green business and education programs, sustainability consultants and technological solutions, municipal waste and FOG experts, and utility energy-efficiency and water conservation resources. This seminar will explore the various pathways to the greener restaurant and how to take advantage of the available resources.
