Do you have a program on food waste reduction and management?

At Great Performances, we consider our global impact at every stage of the pro- cess, from ideating and creating dishes and menus through even services and waste reduction programs. We believe in full utilization of ingredients, ensuring every part of the plant or animal is used in a delicious dish. At events and our production facilities, we have comprehensive waste/disposable programs that include recycling, composting, material repurposing and surplus food recovery programs directed for immediate use by shelters and places in need.
