Tell the story! All food service operators are making great strides in working towards a more sustainable future. Most companies we have worked with have waste tracking systems, strive to procure local goods as much as possible and are excited to share their sustainable efforts with clients. It is important to make sure you are supporting your operator’s efforts by working collaboratively. Some of the ways in which we have seen this done is by giving the operator outdoor space to grow a garden, providing roof top space for bee hives, or promoting food drives on digital signage throughout the campus. It is important to make sure there are regular meetings with the operators’ marketing team to build a collaborative relationship that speaks to your organization’s priorities.
