Our Sustainability Journey
My Food Bag has the ambition to inspire New Zealand’s families to be happier, one meal at a time, through all we do. We’re energised by feedback from customers on how our recipes and healthy ingredients have transformed millions of Kiwi family meals, improved peoples’ health, and created thousands of new confident home cooks across New Zealand.
To be successful in the long run, we look beyond just delivering a great service. We view our responsibility through three broad sustainability lenses: how we look after our people, how we participate in our communities, and how our activities impact the environment.
In this section you’ll find how we’re approaching six different areas where we have a clear goal to keep improving and share our journey with you.
