Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do

We are dedicated to
integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into our operations and long-term strategy and
have recently written our first ESG Commitment Statement.

Our commitment to ESG is not just a framework; it’s how we deliver on our purpose every day. 

From reducing food waste to supporting everyday Western Australians, our initiatives align directly with ESG outcomes. 

We are dedicated to reducing our environmental footprint through various initiatives.

By partnering with growers and producers, we ensure that surplus food reaches those in need rather than becoming landfill. Our branches are equipped with energy-efficient systems, including solar power and sensor lights, and we continuously optimise our logistics to minimise emissions. Less than 5% of sourced foods go to landfill, with appropriate waste going to local farmers as feed or to produce fertiliser. Our efforts in food waste diversion have significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a healthier environment. 

Our social impact is at the heart of what we do. We provide millions of meals to Western Australians, including emergency food relief during natural disasters. Our School Breakfast Program reaches thousands of students, ensuring they start their day with a nutritious meal. We empower individuals with the knowledge to cook healthy meals on a budget and reduce their household food waste through our nutrition education programs. Our services reach remote communities, delivering food and support to areas with limited access to resources.

We uphold the highest standards of governance and accountability. Our Board oversees strategic planning to ensure long-term sustainability and impact. We adhere to strict food safety regulations and have robust risk management practices in place. Our Board and leadership team are committed to transparency, continuous improvement, and ethical decision-making.

Every kilo of food or dollar donated directly contributes to our environmental and social impact. We are grateful for the support of our corporate and food donors, whose contributions make a significant difference. 

Together, we can build a more sustainable, equitable, and resilient Western Australia
