Consumers Are Going Green—Are You?
For any brand or company, reputation is everything! If you use eco-friendly catering supplies, sure, customers might not immediately become your brand’s "superfans" just because of it. But if you don’t go the eco-friendly route, that’s a whole different story! In today’s social media age, once customers feel disappointed, they won't hesitate to share their frustration—one post with a photo of "this brand doesn’t care about the environment" can quickly sway a whole crowd of potential clients. And that’s not something any brand wants to risk! By switching to biodegradable container, cutlery, and straws, you’re not just making a product choice—you’re sending a message that your brand values the planet.
Stay Ahead of Environmental Policies
With stricter regulations on single-use plastics cropping up globally, catering businesses are under pressure to rethink their disposable supplies. In countries like the UK, France, and Italy, governments have introduced taxes on traditional plastic products or even outright bans on certain single-use plastics, making it increasingly costly to stick with conventional materials. For example, the European Union has implemented measures to restrict or ban single-use plastics, while Italy imposes a plastic tax on disposable items. Similarly, the UK charges fees on plastic bags and plans to tax packaging with insufficient recycled content. These policies significantly increase the costs of traditional disposable supplies.Switching to environmentally friendly alternatives can prepare for the gradual tightening of plastic policies around the world in the future and avoid additional losses!

How to Optimize the Efficiency of Disposable Products in the Foodservice Industry?
Encourage Customers to Use Reusable Bags and Items: There are many ways to do this! You could even charge a small fee for excessive disposable items beyond the usual needs. In China, the government encourages foodservice businesses to avoid offering disposable products unless necessary, and you might want to consider implementing this in your own business.
Standardize Packaging Procedures and Train Your Staff: Clearly define how many, what size, and what type of disposable items are needed in various situations. Training your staff to efficiently and expertly use disposable products when packing orders is key to long-term efficiency gains.
Choose Disposables with Specific Designs to Match Specific Products: Dajue offers many targeted products designed to meet the needs of different situations. Consider selecting packaging solutions that match the products being served. Not only will this reduce waste (as sometimes you can use smaller or less robust packaging), but it also leaves a professional impression on customers.
