Goodfood Customers Now Enjoy Planet-Friendly Deliveries
17 April 2023 - 9:00PM
Goodfood Market Corp. (“Goodfood” or “the Company”) (TSX: FOOD) has
made every day Earth Day through recent operational improvements
that will have an important positive impact on our planet. The
Company announced today that customers can now feel even better
about their Goodfood meals knowing that delivery carbon emissions
are permanently being offset going forward. In addition, the team
has released next generation packaging to reduce plastic waste by
21 metric tonnes —equivalent to more than 2,400,000 plastic grocery
bags1.
In partnership with Less Emissions, Goodfood is
offsetting the carbon impact of its deliveries by supporting
Canadian projects, including Les Minéraux Harsco’s slag-based
recycling operations in Quebec and The Net Zero Waste Inc. City of
Abbotsford Composting Facility in British Columbia.
“From a business perspective, we want to be
involved in helping to solve our world’s biggest challenges because
that is where the greatest opportunities can be found. The climate
crisis is at the top of that list,” said Jonathan Ferrari, Goodfood
Chairman and CEO. “It is our generation’s responsibility to drive
sustainable transformation across all industries, and Goodfood is
leading the movement towards creating a sustainable food future we
can all be proud of.”
These initiatives complement Goodfood’s other
ongoing planet-friendly efforts including: providing perfectly
portioned ingredients in their meal kits to prevent food waste and
partnering with local suppliers to provide fresh, seasonal food
that doesn’t travel long distances or require the packaging and
repackaging of the traditional food supply system.
