One dish, One event, One relationship at a time
Sustainability: At the Heart of Our Luxury Catering Business
In the world of luxury catering, providing an unforgettable culinary experience is paramount. At our company, we take that a step further. More than just creating delectable dishes and memorable events, we are deeply committed to making a positive impact - one dish, one event, one relationship at a time.
Dedication to Creating a Better Future
Our focus on sustainability and high standards is not just a part of our business strategy; it is a reflection of our dedication to creating a better future for our planet, our clients, our team, and ultimately, our business. To us, sustainability is not just about doing business; it's about making a difference.
Let's Talk Food Waste
While there are many provisions in place to reduce food waste. Over ⅓ of all food produced globally goes to waste. The UK throws away around 9.5 million tonnes of food waste in a single year. In the corporate catering sector, we've seen a significant amount of food waste.
Transform Together
Together, we can help transform wasteful habits and create a more eco-friendly industry. One of the simplest ways we can support this how we work out the correct amount of food needed for each event. At Luxury Chefs, we have extensive experience catering for events of all sizes, so we're more than qualified to provide advice on quantities.
Responsibly Sourced,
Okay, let's talk about everyone's favorite subject: meat! We all love sinking our teeth into a juicy burger or savoring that tender steak. Excessive meat consumption is taking a toll on our planet. To reduce our environmental impact while still indulging your taste buds, we offer great options for vegetarians and vegans. When we do order our meat it comes from the best butchers and sourced responsibly.
Local Suppliers;
When ordering our fruit and vegetables, we use our local suppliers like KENT FRESH, THE BLACK PIG & FRUITS DE MER. All of these suppliers deliver locally grown, fished or raised produce with minimal food miles. All our produce can be traced to where it has come from and how it was transported.
Beyond the Kitchen: Our Sustainable Practices
When it comes to ordering corporate catering, it's time to raise the bar and support our sustainable options. We use recyclable boxes, plates, trays, and food containers. We also limit single-use plastics and practice good waste management where possible.
At the end of the day, it's all about supporting those who infuse their culinary creations with a side of sustainability. We take pride in sourcing sustainable and locally-produced fresh produce from small British businesses, ensuring low food miles and a low carbon footprint
A Lifetime Commitment
At the end of the day, what we do is not just about catering to events; it's about catering to a better future. We understand that the decisions we make today will shape the world we live in tomorrow. This understanding drives us to continuously seek ways to improve our practices and make a more significant impact.
Road to Sustainability
We are aware that the road to sustainability is a journey, not a destination. It's a continuous process of learning, growing, and making a difference. But we believe that every small step we take brings us closer to our goal of creating a better, more sustainable future.
We invite you to join us on this journey. Together, let's make a difference - one dish, one event, one relationship at a time.
