Compass Group USA’s Post

Compass Group Sustainability had an inspiring experience earlier this month at the ReFED Food Waste Solutions Summit in Baltimore! 🌿♻️ We spent valuable time with our partners from across the industry, learned about innovative strategies to reduce food waste, and reaffirmed our commitment to sustainability. A highlight for us was that our VP of Sustainability Gwyneth Lodge Rampton spoke on a panel about "Navigating the Intersection of Sustainable Reporting and Implementation." She emphasized, "Reducing waste is one of the sustainability topics that is good for the planet, our communities, the bottom line, and our clients." 💬 At Compass Group, we're committed members of the #U.S.FoodWastePact, and we look forward to using the insights gained this week to work toward our goal to halve food waste by 2030. 🌍 Thanks to the organizers and our amazing team! 👏 #FoodWasteSummit24 #Sustainability #ReFED #Baltimore Bon Appétit Management Company Canteen North America Chartwells Higher Education Dining Services Flik Hospitality GroupRestaurant Associates

Crothall Healthcare's Nick Zarriello offers words of wisdom for Pride Month – and every month: “We can all be allies of the LGBTQ+ community – or any community – by taking the time to simply get to know one another. The importance of kindness, compassion, understanding and empathy toward others cannot be over emphasized.” Get to know Nick here: https://lnkd.in/e93HfJPg #Pride #PrideMonth

Today is #WorldFoodSafetyDay - an important reminder that serving safe food is a core value throughout Compass Group. We all have a role to play in safely serving guests all day, every day. As recognized by International Association for Food Protection as the 2023 Black Pearl Award winner, our strong culture of care is built on shared responsibility, working together to ensure the food we produce is safe, delicious and a reflection of our high standards.

Purchasing local products has been a critical part of Compass Group's purchasing philosophy for years. We are proud to support the communities where we live, work and operate our businesses. This summer, our BIPOC Farmer Program enters its third year. Our goal with the program is to grow our network of diverse suppliers by bringing more BIPOC farmers and their produce into our accounts. We are proud to share that our partner from Henderson, NC, the Brown Family Farm, recently won Small Farmers of the Year through the NC AT&T’s Cooperative Extension program. What amazing work from such a fantastic farm!
