Greene King extends partnership with SWRnewstar

Written by Sarah Turner

SWRnewstar is delighted to confirm the extension of our long-standing partnership with Greene King.

Greene King is one of the UK’s leading hospitality businesses, with more than 1,700 managed pubs, restaurants, and hotels across the country. Over the last 5 years, we have worked together to drive measurable and sustainable change across the managed estate, leading to Greene King becoming the first pub company to achieve the Carbon Trust Zero to Landfill accreditation in 2020.

Looking ahead the partnership will focus on carbon reduction strategies and the activation of legislative changes, whilst continuing to drive the fundamentals of waste segregation and exceptional service delivery.

“We are incredibly proud of the partnership we have built with Greene King over the last 5 years. It is based on a shared ambition to improve the environment in which we live and work, and a commitment to getting the day-to-day basics right for every Greene King pub, restaurant, and hotel across the UK. It is hugely rewarding for everyone at SWRnewstar to have this recognised through the long-term extension to our partnership, which is testament to the results that been achieved so far and the strength of our future plans.”

Will Keer, Business Director, SWRnewstar

“SWRnewstar and Greene King have formed a collaborative and longstanding partnership built on trust, proactivity, transparency and a will by both parties to buck the norm, which has led to key projects and innovative initiatives being landed successfully.  These projects have enhanced Greene King’s ESG credentials, delivered against key sustainability objectives and reduced cost for Greene King.”
