our green pledge
Sustainable catering in London
At Grace & Skye, we believe indulgence can be sustainable. We’re on a mission to reduce our carbon footprint and create extraordinary food that’s kind to the planet.
By sourcing locally, supporting small producers, and designing low-waste seasonal menus, we’re proving that conscious catering can still be beautiful, generous, and full of flavour.
Sustainability isn’t a trend for us. It’s the way we cook, shop, and think.
When we started Grace & Skye, we swore we’d cook with the seasons, support local producers, and tread lightly on the planet. That means we design every menu around what’s fresh, abundant and responsibly sourced, never what’s easiest to import. We plan carefully to minimise waste, reuse creatively, and serve food that’s as kind to the environment as it is delicious.

Make us part of your sustainability pledge -
Choosing sustainable catering isn’t just good for the planet - it’s good for people too. By sourcing ingredients from local farms and independent producers, we’re helping to strengthen the local economy and support small businesses doing things the right way. Every menu we design creates reliable demand for seasonal, locally grown food, helping small-scale farmers and artisans to thrive and keeping skills, jobs, and flavour within our community.
-
Minimising food waste is at the heart of our approach to sustainable catering. As an eco-friendly caterer, we believe every ingredient deserves to be used to its fullest - from the first spark of menu design to the final plate served on site. Our chefs find creative ways to reimagine and repurpose surplus produce, turning potential waste into something beautiful. You’ll always see a ferment or a pickle on our dishes. Anything that can’t be used is composted or donated, helping us reduce food waste and support a more circular, sustainable food system.
Our Green Partners
-
Social Impact Coffee
65% of their profits go back into the local community. They choose beans from regenerative farms, and roast their coffee using induction heaters with net zero emissions. They’re working toward net negative!
-
Chapman's
After finishing their delivery runs, Chapman's head straight to the Kent and Sussex coastline. They collect fish straight from the nets to be used for next day's delivery. Dramatically reducing food miles and our carbon footprint!
-

We know there’s always more to do. Our future targets focus on further reducing our carbon emissions through greener transport, zero-waste menu planning, and energy-efficient kitchens.
At Grace & Skye, we don’t want to be another part of the problem, we want to be part of the solution.
