We don’t just talk about sustainability - we take action. Check out some of the ways we're reducing our environmental impact and creating a positive impact on our community.
Working Toward Zero Waste
We proudly support the sustainability goals of Charleston Southern University. Here are a few active initiatives.
Reducing Waste
We’re committed to reducing food waste and single-use plastics across our operations with the dual goals of conserving resources and minimizing our environmental footprint.

Proactive Prevention
We use tracking and forecasting tools to proactively identify food waste trends in order to alter our preparation accordingly.
Your Choices Can Make a Daily Impact
Our goal is to make it easy to offer you nutritious, environmentally, and socially conscious options wherever possible.
