Be part of the Cool Food revolution

Why do we need a Cool Food revolution in the catering industry?

Food production creates a quarter of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. 

We have the power to change this. 

Be a leading example in your industry by making planet friendly changes to how you cater. Small changes make a big difference to the sustainability of your menus. 

Work with us to achieve our carbon savings target of 1000 tonnes of CO2e. (carbon dioxide equivalent) and make positive changes to the earth’s water quality and biodiversity at the same time. 

The Cool Food Pro carbon calculator tool can help you to make positive changes to reduce your impact on the planet.

What our caterers say

We wanted to get involved in the Cool Food Pro pilot so we could show our customers you can still have delicious and cost-effective meals while being sustainable and helping the environment. The tool is very quick, simple and easy to use and our client on site is very focused on sustainability so is behind us 100%.
