The Mobile Chef

Sustainability

We have been dedicated to sustainability since before it was the cool thing to do and are proud to continue to be one of the most sustainable catering companies in Zimbabwe

We believe strongly in sustainable practices, both on and off premise. In the office, we participate in composting and Single Stream Recycling programs, and practice double-sided printing whenever possible. In addition, we offer our clients the choice of returnable packaging such as baskets, Pyrex and Cambros, along with a wide selection of eco-friendly, biodegradable products including tree-free napkins, wooden stirrers, paper cups, compostable paper plates, and cutlery made of pre-consumer recycled materials. All of our used cooking grease is recycled into bio fuel and we only use eco-friendly cleaning supplies. We are also proud to be a Styrofoam free environment.

Use of solar energy, tracking and monitoring energy usage including tracking all our delivery vans and trucks, enforcing anti- idling policies and promoting energy efficient travel routes.

 We strive to use water more efficiently with minimum spillages.

Our in-house sustainability team develops plans and implements our green systems, including educating and training managers and employees of all levels on the importance of being sustainable and how to employ our green initiatives both in-house and at events. Because we work intimately with a number of green-conscious clients ,a number of our staff are already well-versed in green policies and procedures, including working knowledge of what is recyclable and compostable at an event, and have taken it upon themselves to proactively educate and direct guests in the same manner.

In addition to our sustainability practices, we also strive to make sustainable purchases where possible.

We are working towards ISO 9000: 2015 Quality management systems certification by June 2025.
