Business Victor Harbor’s successful
Stage 1 LEAP program supported 5 Fleurieu regional businesses to identify and
implement better practices in
sustainability and circular economy. Over the next 10 months, Green Industries
SA is continuing to fund Stage 2 of the LEAP program- a collaborative
sustainability project, managed by Business Victor Harbor (chamber
of commerce) to deliver a specialised mentoring
and coaching program focused on food waste reduction
and better practice methodologies in food waste management for 3 regional based
businesses from across the Greater Fleurieu.
Colin Shearing, Executive Officer Business Victor Harbor says “Business Victor Harbor has been delighted with the success of Stage 1 and is now excited to continue with Rawtec, one of Australia’s leading consultancies working in the circular economy, in delivering Stage 2 of a collaborative project that targets local businesses food waste space over the next 10 months” “Greater Fleurieu paddock-to-plate businesses are proud to promote and showcase their local products as part of the State’s best food regions.”
“The region’s business community takes plate-waste and food spoilage seriously and is seeking best practice strategies to reduce the amount of food wasted and the amount of food ending up in kerbside waste. “
“This project forms part of BVH’s 2024-2027 Strategic Plan and will lead to increasing the business community’s better understanding of ‘going circular’ as there appears to be a varied local business operator response in regards to food waste management and the local economic impacts.”
Congratulations to the following 3 food related businesses which have been selected from broad cohort of applications: Cooinda Retreats Baker’s Delight, Victor Harbor McCracken Country Club
“The 3 regional businesses with the trial will have the opportunity to share results, promote and demonstrate initiatives, plus provide take-aways that can be implemented and/or adapted by the broader Fleurieu regional business paddock-to-plate community”
Gavin Daniell, Chair Business Victor Harbor says, “This is a tremendous opportunity for the greater Fleurieu region’s paddock-to-plate businesses, our local community and for sustainability! Congratulations to all!”
