GRA Working with PepsiCo to Assist Customers Becoming More Environmentally Sustainable

PepsiCo Foodservice has entered into a strategic partnership with the not-for-profit Green Restaurant Association. The GRA will work with PepsiCo Foodservice to assist customers with becoming more environmentally sustainable.

Founded in 1990, the GRA is dedicated to making foodservice operators more environmentally sustainable, offering them an array of services that include research, environmental consulting, employee education and certification on all matters that pertain to running an ever-greener establishment. The GRA can be a resource to PepsiCo Foodservice customers by conducting environmental site assessments, identifying opportunities to make operations more sustainable and provide related cost-benefit analyses.

"PepsiCo strives to identify customer needs and provide meaningful solutions," says Scott Siers, VP of Industry Relations and Business Development, PepsiCo Foodservice. "We know that environmental sustainability is important to our customers. PepsiCo Foodservice has collaborated with the GRA to facilitate working solutions for our customers who serve any of PepsiCo's products -- Pepsi, Frito-Lay, Tropicana, Quaker and Gatorade."

"We help foodservice operators become more environmentally sustainable by identifying opportunities and importantly, outlining steps for improvement through environmental assessments," says Michael Oshman, executive director, Green Restaurant Association. "We work with vendors, property managers and manufacturers to implement those steps, while maintaining an ongoing client relationship to ensure success. We also help the operators realize the economic advantages of being environmentally responsible."

The partnership is an example of PepsiCo's ongoing commitment to "Performance with Purpose," a mission to improve all aspects of the world in which the business operates. Through this agreement, PepsiCo will be able to extend its mission to the foodservice sector by raising environmental awareness across the industry.

"The GRA has been on the forefront of driving environmental sustainability in the foodservice industry for nearly two decades," says Scott Siers. "There is no better partner to help us extend our commitment to Performance with Purpose to our customers. Their distinguished GRA Certification represents the gold standard for sustainability in the foodservice industry."

"The GRA applauds PepsiCo's leadership with their Performance with Purpose mission," says Oshman. "We are delighted to partner with their Foodservice division to help their customers, regardless of size, become more environmentally sustainable."
