Committed to Courtauld phase three

Members of the UK Food and Drink Federation (FDF) have reaffirmed their support for the third phase of the Courtauld Commitment– a responsibility deal set up by WRAP to improve resource efficiency and reduce the carbon and wider environmental impact of food and drink waste.

“Following the progress made so far by FDF signatories under Courtauld Commitments 1 and 2, we look forward to building on this success under Courtauld 3,” says Andrew Kuyk, FDF’s director of sustainability. “We particularly welcome the focus on food waste reduction, and the recognition that optimised packaging saves waste.

“We are delighted that WRAP is launching a third phase of the Courtauld Commitment, especially at a time when the twin challenges of future food security and climate change make it imperative that food and drink businesses address resource efficiency both within their own operations and across their supply chains.”
