Sustainability Conference Sets the Stage for Meaningful Change

Earlier this week, to coincide with Stop Food Waste Day, Restaurant Associates hosted its inaugural Sustainability Conference—an event that will now take place annually to keep sustainability and meaningful change at the heart of its business strategy. 

The afternoon event, attended by both associates from within the business and key clients of Restaurant Associates, featured a panel discussion with long-standing suppliers - including B-Corps and social enterprises – showcasing the meaningful impact they are making within the sustainability space. 

The conference featured a dynamic programme that included:

🔹  A thought-provoking panel discussion featuring some of our key sustainable suppliers—Belazu, Redemption Roasters, and Crate to Plate—who spoke passionately about the real-world impact of their ESG innovations and the power of partnership in driving scalable solutions.

🔹 Culinary Director, Adam Thomason and his team brought the event to life with a vibrant menu of zero-waste dishes that celebrated flavour, creativity and environmental responsibility.

🔹 A Supplier Village showcasing innovation-led partners including Notpla, Toast Brewing, Unrooted, and Winnow.

🔹  Inspiring talks from guest speakers Juliane Caillouette-Noble, Managing Director of the Sustainable Restaurant Association, and Carolyn Ball, Director for Delivery of Net Zero at Compass Group UK & Ireland.
