Our Commitment to Sustainability
Eco-Friendly Dining With Sustainable Practices
Maki & Ramen proudly brings eco-friendly dining to every plate. Fresh, local ingredients keep food miles low while ensuring top quality. Chefs use thoughtful planning and creative techniques to focus on sustainable food preparation. From start to finish, they work on preventing food waste in every dish. Even the packaging reflects care for the planet, using recyclable and biodegradable materials. Every choice, big or small, supports a healthier environment. Guests enjoy modern Japanese dishes that are as kind to the earth as they are delicious. We prove that thoughtful practices and great food can go hand in hand. It’s our pleasure to help create a dining experience that cares for the future and our community.
Fresh, Local Ingredients for Eco-Friendly Dining
Enjoy dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients that support sustainable food preparation. Partnering with local suppliers ensures shorter ingredient travel and reduces our carbon footprint. Our focus on plant-based and vegetarian dishes promotes healthier living and sustainable habits. Our approach benefits both you and the environment in ways like:
- Local Ingredients Help the Planet: By sourcing locally, we cut down transport emissions while supporting nearby farmers.
- Choosing Plant-Based Options: Lower reliance on meat reduces greenhouse gases and fosters sustainable eating habits.
- Making our Dishes Healthier: We use traditional ingredients that support a healthy lifestyle.
Ethically Sourced Seafood
All the seafood we use is ethically sourced. Our sushi reflects responsible farming and fishing practices, ensuring minimal impact on marine ecosystems. In choosing franchise partners who share our values, we support the global effort to fight against overfishing. The seafood we serve is not only delicious but helps protect the planet’s resources. It’s all part of our earth-centred approach to being a model for the restaurant industry.
Minimising and Preventing Food Waste
Food waste is a critical issue we actively address. Our efficient operations ensure that ingredients are carefully managed to prevent unnecessary waste. This aligns with our company values of respecting resources, people, and the environment. We make the most of everything we source through strategic planning and resourcefulness. In this way, we contribute toward a more sustainable future while maintaining the quality of every dish.
Eco-Friendly Dining With Reduced CO2 Emissions
Reducing CO2 emissions is central to our commitment to sustainable food preparation. We collaborate with eco-conscious partners and suppliers who share our focus on sustainability. Through optimised delivery systems, we limit transportation emissions of our ingredients. We minimise environmental impact at every step by prioritising renewable energy in our operations. Every effort contributes to eco-friendly dining, making sustainability a natural part of what we do. We focus on blending sustainable practices with a philosophy of providing delicious, accessible Japanese cuisine.
From the Environment to Supporting Our Communities
We focus on creating a positive impact beyond just serving meals. Connecting with local organisations strengthens our communities and supports eco-friendly dining. Here’s how our efforts make a difference:
- Sustainable Food Preparation: We work with local suppliers to source fresh, seasonal ingredients. In so doing, we can reduce our overall environmental footprint.
