GREEN RESOURCES

Green Nature Marketing (GNM) is committed to providing foodservice operators with the latest selection in sustainable foodservice products and visibility to fellow operators we’ve assisted with our shared values.  We also aim to be your “one stop green resource” for a variety of information as it relates to: current sustainable news, helpful links, industry certification, and understanding sustainable industry terms and definitions.

We have listed several articles and videos that caught our eye in regards to sustainable foods and waste diversion topics.  We at GNM feel each piece has relevant information connecting our everyday actions in the foodservice supply chain with the environmental impact or improvement upon our impact  our actions can have.
