In order to raise awareness of food wastage among its collaborators, Epsilon has set up an initiative to provide its employees with two daily meals and to distribute the leftovers to an NGO. On average, 2100 meals are distributed every day, with an average daily consumption of 450 kg of white rice, 230 kg of meat, 220 kg of edible leaves, 25 litres of oil, 60 kg of sugar, 1,200 pieces of bread and 90 90 g coffee sachets.
By recycling leftovers, Epsilon is supporting the development of economic activity around its production site and ensures decent living conditions and remuneration for those benefitting from the programme.
