Creation of Great Traiteur, the beginning of our commitment to responsible catering.
In 2012, Great Traiteur was founded with a simple ambition: to offer responsible, tasty, and environmentally friendly catering services. That year marked the beginning of a sustainable approach that continues to guide everything we do.
First certification with the Ecodynamic Enterprise Label
Our commitment to the environment has been officially recognized with the award of our first Ecodynamic Enterprise certification. This is a key milestone that highlights our ongoing efforts to reduce our environmental impact.
New partnership and a transition to short supply chains
Partnership with Recyclo began in 2020, followed by collaboration with Alpaca. In 2021, our commitment intensified with a transition to short supply chains, reinforcing our sustainable and responsible approach.
Ever greener energy
We are strengthening our environmental commitment with a 100% green energy contract, moving into a new building equipped with solar panels, and gradually transitioning to a fleet of electric vehicles. By 2025, more than 90% of our travel will be electric.
Smart Mobility
We actively encourage sustainable travel by facilitating cycling, walking, and public transportation. By providing suitable infrastructure and raising awareness among our teams, we are reducing our carbon footprint while improving everyone's well-being. Healthier mobility for a cleaner environment.
Heading toward a responsible future
By 2030, we will aim for a 100% electric fleet to reduce our environmental impact. By 2035, we plan to obtain ISO 22000 certification and reduce our CO₂ emissions by 35%. These goals mark our commitment to building a more sustainable, responsible, and exemplary future.
