Simply Elegant

Our Social & Environmental Commitments

There’s no point being a premier event and catering company if we’ve run out of the planet to live on. So we take our responsibility to the environment very seriously.

Here are some of the ways we work towards sustainability:

FOOD

• We support and purchase from local Calgary, AB food products and suppliers
• We use organic vegetables where possible
• 90% of the meat we purchase is from Alberta, including free-range fed chickens and turkeys
• 25% of all products we purchase are grown locally in the Pacific NW
• 90% of the fruit we buy comes from North America

DISPOSABLE PRODUCTS

• We provide biodegradable disposable cocktail and lunch plates
• We provide “green” cutlery at the client’s request
• Since 1996, we’ve used chafing dishes (not tinfoil) for all hot food
• We use plastic platters, which are sanitized and reused, instead of disposable ones
• Our food is presented on china by request

WE RECYCLE

• All cardboard and office paper products
• Kitchen cooking oil
• Bottles and cans with proceeds being donated to local community groups

TRANSPORTATION

• Straight-line food delivery for “green routing” to specific downtown corporate buildings to reduce fuel consumption, minimize vehicle exhaust plus conserve gas.
