As part of our commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) excellence, MR Groups is thrilled to announce a major milestone in our packaging transition. Effective this month, 100% of the takeaway cups, containers, boxes, and utensils used in our Cafés, Restaurants, Catering, and Chicken Shops have been transitioned to plant-based compostable or fully recyclable paper alternatives.
Eliminating Single-Use Plastics
This transition removes over 15 tonnes of single-use plastic waste from our operations annually. Working closely with UK-based packaging suppliers, we designed cups and boxes that maintain thermal efficiency for hot foods while degrading naturally without leaving chemical microplastics behind.
Group-Wide ESG Commitment
Our ESG roadmap targets carbon neutrality across all operations by 2035.
- Compostable Cups: Crafted from renewable sugar cane fiber (bagasse) and coated with natural resin.
- Paper Totes & Wraps: Sourced from FSC-certified sustainable UK forests.
- Zero Plastic Straws: Swapped completely for organic bamboo and paper straws.
We thank our local customers for their continued feedback, which drives us to make every visit to an MR Groups establishment clean, convenient, and green.
