Restaurants can save BIG with BizRecycling!

 
Biz Recycling - Did you Know?
SPECIAL RECYCLING: RESTAURANTS - Grandma's Bakery
 
Through their recycling commitment, Grandma’s Bakery has dramatically changed their business operations. Among the many changes, there are recycle bins strategically located and properly labeled by every trash container, any remaining food items are now recycled for animal food and all organic materials are composted. “Recycling is the good thing to do. It is socially responsible and will save you money,” says John Lupo, President of Grandma’s Bakery. With the placement of putting the right bin in the proper location and delegating certain staff members to check the recycling bins, he was able to get the employee and customer compliance to the recycling program.
