Fueling A Sustainable Future
We believe that creating a better world for generations to come starts today.
Your Choices Can Make a Daily Impact
Our goal is to make it easy to offer you nutritious, environmentally, and socially conscious options wherever possible.
Working Toward Zero Waste
We proudly support the sustainability goals of Assumption. Here are a few active initiatives.
Collaborative Composting
We work to collect organic materials—including food waste and compostable service items such as napkins and wooden stir sticks—to be composted into renewable energy!
Proactive Prevention
We use tracking and forecasting tools to proactively identify food waste trends in order to alter our preparation accordingly.
