Sysco GB has launched One Planet One Table, a new proposition designed to help foodservice operators make menu decisions supported by sustainability certifications.
Developed in partnership with global sustainability firm Quantis, the initiative highlights products that carry robust, product-specific, third-party sustainability certifications. Customers can shop for these products through a dedicated One Planet One Table page and filter on the Brakes website.
Certifications have been assessed against strict criteria including independent auditing, open enrolment, product-level traceability, rigorous standards and relevance to Sysco’s material environmental and social topics.
Only those that meet these requirements have been included, spanning globally recognised schemes including MSC, ASC, Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade, RSPCA Assured and Leaf Marque, each with different focus criteria. Every certified product page on the Brakes website displays the relevant accreditation.
The programme spans a range of categories including fresh produce, meat, poultry, eggs, disposables, tea, coffee, chocolate, sugar and ice cream. Sysco GB’s selection of MSC and ASC-certified seafood will also be included, with it now exceeding 200 certified products including core cod, haddock and pollock lines.
“Operators want sustainability to be credible, practical and commercially relevant,” said Sysco head of sustainability Pete Statham. “By using verified third-party accreditations, One Planet One Table helps chefs and caterers to choose products that support their sustainability goals, while delivering great food for their customers.”
