Alison Cove, the CEO and founder of USEFULL, is leading the charge in revolutionizing food service sustainability. Her company focuses on implementing collection systems for reusable food packaging, helping university and corporate cafeterias reduce their reliance on single-use plastics and paper packaging. This shift towards reusable containers is crucial in combating the environmental impact of disposable items in the food service industry.

USEFULL offers trackable, tech-enabled reusable steel food containers and cups, providing a sustainable alternative to single-use packaging. One success story comes from Carleton College, which saw a significant drop in its loss rate from almost 60% to less than 1% after adopting USEFULL’s reusable system. This achievement highlights the effectiveness of creating circular food service systems on campuses to reduce waste and promote sustainability.

The issue of single-use plastics is a pressing concern, with the U.S. market for disposable food service containers reaching approximately $27.81 billion annually. The widespread use of disposable items not only contributes to the billions of tons of waste generated each year but also poses a threat to the environment through production, disposal, and the potential for pollution. By promoting the use of reusable food service containers, companies like USEFULL are making a positive impact on reducing plastic pollution and fostering a culture of sustainability.
