Safe Food

BigChefs Sustainability Commitment

At BigChefs, we continuously improve our business processes and apply sustainability principles in all areas, while keeping our environmental and social responsibilities in mind.

Sustainability in Our Supply Chain

We collaborate with the Out-of-Home Consumption Suppliers Association (ETÜDER) in order to raise sustainability standards. Currently, 65% of our procurement is sourced from Safe Food Certified suppliers. Our year-end goal is to increase this ratio to 80% and to 95% by 2025. We continue to maintain our pioneering position in the industry by transparently sharing our sustainability targets with our stakeholders.
