Our engagements

 It is not always easy to reconcile the world of catering with ecology. On a daily basis, through our purchases, our consumption, we try our best to limit our environmental impact through actions in favor of sustainable development. We have been audited by the Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur Region on various points, of which the following is a summary. Our commitment has been rewarded with the "Gold" eco-challenges label. We are proud of it but we are also aware that some points still need to be improved.
