With the vast array of incredible produce, ingredients, seafood & meats available within Australia and closer to home, Western Australia, we only use imported ingredients if a local equivalent is not available.
We are proudly an Australian company and are always excited to show-off our locally grown and produced ingredients.
W.R.I.T.E. Solutions is a locally based WA company providing a comprehensive package of services including waste management, staff training, solar and recycling services. They are part of our increasing efforts to reduce our carbon footprint and lower our overall impact on our environment.
In addition to our W.R.I.T.E Solutions partnership, we also offer our customers free coffee grounds to compost and improve the soil within their own home. Ask us for our 2kg recyclable bucket when you visit any one of our businesses.
To ensure our water is of the highest & purest quality, all our businesses have installed ‘RO” filtration equipment to not only ensure our coffee and tap water is of the highest quality but also to ensure a chemical-free water supply to our guests.
Representing the ‘Gold-Standard’ in presenting a measurable environmentally sustainable business, we are currently in the process of producing our first ‘Carbon Neutral’ business unit within The Metropolitan Hospitality Group . We are now seeking to become the first Café & Catering business in Western Australia to be certified as Carbon Neutral by the Department of Environment & Energy by the end of 2023.
Plastic water bottles represent an avoidable, high-impact aspect of daily retail purchases. Even with recycling, the recycling process, transportation of water and carbon emissions produced, makes single use plastic bottles a highly negative part of our industry’s environmental impact.
Our Solution.
Naturally filtered, chemical free, zero transport impact, biodegradable glass bottles and all produced in house. Commencing 2023, we aim to provide our own naturally filtered still and sparkling water for our guests.
