Sustainability

CRG believe that sustainable practices are a necessity for doing business, especially within wholesale foodservice. With the future of the sector being shaped by consumer trends, government legislation and technology it is more important than ever to focus on our environmental impact. This is why, we have chosen to collaborate with ClimatePartner to help us identify targets, initiatives and solutions to help us and our members operate in a more environmental and sustainable way.

Community

Outside of the day to day challenges of being a leading foodservice buying group, we have a strong passion for helping the local communities of our members and central office. Supporting a number of charitable organisations throughout the UK and Ireland, we are proud to regularly be undertaking challenges and supporting charitable fundraising events. As a Group we raised over £180,000 in 2022 as part of our 30th Anniversary Fundraising Challenge.
