Sustainable Catering Pledge Form

Take the Sustainable Catering Pledge

The food service industry plays a critical role in environmental stewardship. Whether you're a boutique caterer, event venue, or corporate food service provider, committing to sustainable practices can significantly reduce your environmental impact while attracting eco-conscious clients.

This Sustainable Catering Pledge Form helps catering businesses formalize their commitment to zero-waste events, compostable serviceware, and seasonal menu planning. Built with Paperform, this template makes it simple to capture your sustainability commitments, track your progress, and showcase your environmental leadership to clients and stakeholders.

Why sustainable catering matters

The catering and events industry generates enormous amounts of single-use waste, from plastic cutlery and plates to food scraps that end up in landfills. By pledging to use compostable serviceware, source seasonal ingredients, and implement zero-waste event strategies, catering companies can:

• Reduce landfill contributions and carbon footprint
• Appeal to environmentally conscious clients and event planners
• Support local farmers and seasonal food systems
• Differentiate your brand in a competitive market
• Contribute to broader sustainability and ESG goals

Perfect for catering companies and food service providers

This pledge form is ideal for:

• Catering companies looking to formalize sustainability commitments
• Event venues wanting to offer eco-friendly food service options
• Corporate food services aligning with company ESG initiatives
• Wedding and event planners seeking sustainable vendor partners
• Food trucks and mobile caterers reducing their environmental impact
