How to cash in on your food waste and cooking oil

Sustainability doesn’t just save you money, it can help you make it

You’ll also have heard a lot about how taking action to make your restaurant business more sustainable will help save the planet. But have you heard about how much it will save you? 

While you may not have a use for them, food waste and used cooking oil are hugely valuable resources. 

At a time when food, energy and delivery costs are all on the rise, here are some ideas to help make your business more sustainable both environmentally and financially.

Tips to sustain and save

Get creative with your waste management

Collect food scraps to create compost. A number of waste management companies offer food waste recovery services where it is used to make renewable energy in the form of electricity, biogas, and organic fertiliser.

Recycle oil, recoup the costs

Used cooking oils can be recycled into fuels such as biodiesel. For every 20 litres of used cooking oil get £6 back when you recycle with the Booker deal for Just Eat Restaurant Partners.
