WASTE
Our goal is to increase our recycling efforts and implement a national recycling
program. We are also exploring solutions to reduce food waste and currently
donate food to local food banks near each warehouse.
Examples of how different departments are doing their part to reduce waste:
• KeHE initiated electronic bill of lading program that not only makes us easier to
do business with, it also saves thousands of sheets of paper per year
• The Publix Account Management team will now be saving the equivalent of
130 trees annually by reducing one million sheets of paper used in invoicing.
