Leading Toward a Sustainable Future
Leading Toward a Sustainable Future
We are committed to doing the right thing
for the planet and people.
Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions
What sets us apart is that our Global Road Map to Net Zero is built on a foundation of approved science-based targets, our commitment to carbon neutrality in our operations by 2030 and our commitment to reach climate net zero by 2050. We will work to achieve these targets through a variety of ways.
Canteen warehouses are optimizing energy efficiency and opting for renewable energy packages where available
We promote a circular economy by enhancing recycling rates, optimizing ordering and forecasting systems to prevent food waste, and diverting as much of what remains from the landfill. We also partner with Feeding America to divert food to communities in need whenever possible.

Sustainable Dining
Every step we take to reduce waste in our cafés is a step toward a more sustainable future. We prioritize waste reduction at each stage of our dining operations to make tomorrow a little brighter and focus on menu innovation to provide delicious, nutrient-rich meals for our guests while protecting and improving the health of our planet.
We work with farmers to rescue visually imperfect produce from going to waste and use Waste Not 2.0, Compass Group’s proprietary waste tracking tool, to track, measure, and reduce food waste by preventing overproduction. We also celebrate Stop Food Waste Day, an annual event designed to teach guests the environmental, social, and financial impact of food waste and provide tips on ways they can save food at home.
