SUSTAINABILITY

A better way of doing business

Our food touches the lives of millions of people, from our customers to those who make, grow and pack our products. As Partners (co-owners of our business) we are passionate about every step of its journey, from field to fork. We believe that by always being fair, never wasteful and transforming the lives of those who create, eat and enjoy it - our food can be a force for good

Partners Against Waste

Partners Against Waste is our pledge to a waste-free future. We know the impact of plastics on our environment is a serious concern for both Partners and our customers. That’s why we’re leading a journey of change – by saying goodbye to unnecessary plastics, designing better packaging and reducing food waste right across the business. Together, we can make waste a thing of the past
