Our Commitment to Sustainability
At Mr. Barker, we believe that great BBQ doesn’t have to come at the expense of our planet. We’re dedicated to creating a sustainable experience at every step, from the way we source ingredients to our eco-friendly packaging. Our approach to sustainability reflects our core values of quality, respect for nature, and responsibility to our community.
1. Responsibly Sourced Ingredients
We are proud to partner with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices. By sourcing ingredients locally and responsibly, we minimize environmental impact and ensure that our meats, seafood, and produce are of the highest quality. Our approach not only supports local economies but also reduces carbon emissions associated with long-haul transportation.
2. Eco-Friendly Packaging
Our packaging is designed to minimize waste without compromising freshness or quality. For our BBQ boxes and gift sets, we use recyclable cardboard, reusable ice packs, and biodegradable materials wherever possible. Our premium packages come in eco-friendly, reusable bags, designed to reduce single-use plastics and promote sustainable practices at home.
3. Reducing Food Waste
We prepare each order to ensure minimal waste, portioning our BBQ boxes to be just right for every gathering. Our team carefully plans each box, balancing portions so nothing goes to waste while ensuring our customers enjoy a satisfying BBQ experience.
4. Sustainable Operations
From energy-efficient practices in our kitchens to waste reduction and recycling programs, sustainability is embedded into our daily operations. We’re constantly exploring innovative ways to minimize our environmental footprint, including water conservation and responsible waste disposal.
5. Inspiring Sustainable Choices
We believe that sustainability is a shared journey. Our blog, Barker’s Journal, provides tips on minimizing waste, repurposing leftovers, and sustainable grilling practices, making it easier for our customers to enjoy BBQ responsibly.
Our Promise to You and the Planet
At Mr. Barker, sustainability is more than a commitment – it’s a promise to our customers, community, and the environment. We are dedicated to continuously improving our practices, reducing our impact, and promoting sustainability in every way we can. Join us in savoring delicious BBQ while taking care of the world around us.
