Let's Do Better Together
Burger & Lobster's sustainability commitment.
Doing the right thing for our people, our customers, our partners and the environment has always been at the heart of the Burger & Lobster ethos.
From sustainable sourcing of ingredients, to the long-term relationships with our fishing and farming partners, to the way we manage energy use.
Sustainability for us is about helping to find the balance between progress and conservation. As a business, we’re serious about it and we know our customers expect us to be too, so we’re holding ourselves to account for the steps that we’re taking to be more sustainable and we’re going to talk about the progress we make and the challenges we encounter along the way.
We believe that it’s only by taking a total approach, thinking about every aspect of our business, that we can make a meaningful difference. Our Let’s Do Better Together strategy is designed to reflect this.
Throughout 2024, we worked hard as a business to continue fostering relationships with our fishing and farming partners in Nova Scotia, America, and the UK. When we launched our sustainability programme, we highlighted how every aspect of our business was being considered on our journey to becoming more sustainable.
We’re remaining committed to transparency and acknowledging areas where we fell short, while outlining plans for improvement. On the other hand, when we achieve our targets, we’ll set even more ambitious ones.
In 2024, our ‘Let’s Do Better Together’ strategy saw significant progress across three fundamental pillars.
Carbon Emissions Reduction
We are proud to report that in 2024, we removed all charcoal use from our business, significantly reducing our carbon emission.
We have also partnered with First Mile to manage all waste disposal, who pride themselves in not sending waste to landfill. They therefore report that their approach has a 45% reduced carbon impact compared to the industry average. We also taken the step to centralise all our supplier deliveries, meaning less drop offs, less emissions!
Almost 2,500 Trees Planted
All our suppliers have been carefully selected with a focus on quality, but also their sustainability efforts. Our partnership with Sapling Vodka exemplifies this commitment.
Through our collaboration, we’ve planted just under 2,500 trees, contributing to environmental restoration efforts in Oxford, London, and Nepal.
By supporting projects that align with our values, we’re working towards a greener, more sustainable future.
3% Energy Reduction
Through rigorous training, education, and the implementation of robust processes, our teams achieved a 3% reduction in energy usage.
Every small step we take today contributes to a brighter tomorrow for generations to come.
