Saving the World- One Plate at a Time!

The food court in Oakville Place, in downtown Toronto, has taken on a great initiative, called The Plate Program, which is estimated to reduce the food court garbage by 50% in the coming year.

The new, eco-friendly initiative enhances the experience of eating in a Food Court and contributes to waste management and reduction at the same time. Customers of the Oakville Place food court, “have the option to select their own restaurant quality plate and have their meal served without generating the waste from a disposable plate.”

“At Oakville Place, we want to treat our customers to a more sophisticated shopping experience, and the first step in the Food Court is to enjoy a meal on real dishes. Once customers are finished their meal, we will remove their plates and tray – and we do the dishes!” says Jenny Jovanovic, Marketing Coordinator for Oakville Place.

The Trashbusters have contacted Jenny and hope to learn more about this fantastic initiative!
