A few years ago, Alvida started making its services more sustainable, so that we provide the events and parties for our customers in an environmentally conscious way with the climate as a starting point. We would like to take you through the steps we have taken.
We use the paperless office principle. Almost all internal and external documentation is sent digitally as much as possible. This includes contracts, quotes, invoices and other means of communication. All documents are stored on encrypted hard drives, which also ensures the security of our customers' data. These hard drives are encrypted and are stored in various safes.
Both at our location and at our customers' location, we only use LED lighting and energy-efficient equipment. This applies to, among other things, the lighting, the ambient lighting, the colored LED spots and the bar lighting. All our cranes have a water-saving aerator. This means that we saved 40% and 50% on water use in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
In recent years, transport reduction has helped us to go back to half of our fleet. By focusing efficiently on transport and the use of energy-efficient cars, we are contributing a very big step in reducing CO2 emissions.
Waste prevention, and in particular combating food waste. Using energy efficiently and creating recyclable packaging often result in less waste. The waste generated in our production is separated and processed daily so that 98% of our waste can be recycled.
Our products are produced by sustainable cultivation, so that no or less damage is caused to biodiversity, ecosystems, water and climate. Better for the environment, so better for you, that's why we work with fresh, local and seasonal ingredients.
Last but not least, an honest presentation. During an event, buffet, barbecue or food market, the presentation is of course just as important as the points mentioned above. We make extensive use of recycled products in the presentation of our dishes. This includes the well-known wooden crates, beautiful and responsible decorative items that we maintain in-house so that they can be used again at any event. You will also find our famous spice crates at all our buffets, food markets and barbecue events so that your guests cut the herbs themselves, it couldn't be fresher! In addition, where possible, we work with biodegradable disposables and the materials we use are purchased completely sustainably.
Ik had het genoeg om gebruik te maken van de diensten van Alvida voor de opening van ons nieuwe bedrijf, en ik kan niet anders dan lovend zijn over hun werk! Vanaf het eerste contact was het duidelijk dat ze niet alleen professionaliteit, maar ook passie voor hun vak bezaten.
Het team was uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam, en alles werd tot in de puntjes geregeld, de presentatie was prachtig en er was voor ieder wat wils. Onze gasten waren unaniem enthousiast!
Wat ik vooral waardeerde, was de flexibiliteit van het cateringbedrijf. Ze luisteren aandachtig naar onze wensen en geven advies. Alles werd op tijd geleverd en het personeel was discreet en zorgzaam tijdens het evenement.
Dankzij Alvida werd de opening een groot succes, en ik zou ze zonder overweging aanbevelen voor elke gelegenheid. Ze hebben echt onze verwachtingen overtroffen!
Kind regards,
Marco Verbeek
