Chartwells, among the world’s foremost contract food service providers and a division of Compass Group PLC, realised a gap when facing new competitors among the catering industry where there’s heavy focus on partnering with clients on sustainability strategy to move forward together for a greener future. The objective was to underscore their commitment and their strength in sustainability.

To address this, Future Green crafted a comprehensive strategy, encompassing a workshop designed to refine the overall strategy that’s suitable for the Hong Kong market. This approach also included conducting mock interviews to assist bidders. The ultimate goal was to establish Chartwells as the leading sustainable food catering service.

The first session focused on dissecting current trends in sustainability within the global and local school food service sector. The second session, aimed at evaluating Chartwells’ internal strengths and areas for improvement, concluding with a strategic roadmap tailored to meet the sustainability objectives of their target client.
