• Climate neutral & sustainable events

Particularly fair, particularly sustainable?

Green Chefs not only pay attention to fair and sustainable purchasing or fair trade. They are also characterized by responsible handling of their food. This means that waste is avoided wherever possible. For FLORIS, this starts with purchasing and does not end with the composting plant for kitchen waste.

Suppliers and manufacturers from the region

At FLORIS we try to buy regionally and seasonally as much as possible. Over time, we have been able to build up a network of very good and reliable partners and agricultural companies in Berlin and Brandenburg, all of which focus on sustainability. Just like us, they pay attention to climate neutrality and the environment when growing and producing. In addition, they also treat suppliers and employees fairly.

No strawberries in February, no asparagus in winter.

Do you remember that in the past there were no berries in winter, but nuts or apples? For many people today it is completely normal to eat strawberries, raspberries and blueberries all year round. Grapes from South Africa? Tropical fruits from South America? If a customer wants non-seasonal fruits or vegetables, we at least offer alternatives. If a customer insists, we recommend compensating with a climate certificate.

Don't print...

Wherever possible, we have switched to digital and are saving a lot of paper. If something does need to be printed, we only do it on paper with the Blue Angel. We also chose our electricity supplier based on sustainable criteria and motion detectors are installed in the hall and common rooms. The sanitary facilities have water regulators. We have a heat pump, rely on e-mobility and use reusable tableware. If the latter is not possible, it must at least be compostable disposable tableware, for example made from corn starch or bamboo.

Climate-neutral and sustainable events

For many of FLORIS customers, holding climate-neutral events has become a must. We can proudly say that we are the right partner!
