- Carrefour Foundation staging anti-wastage-themed buffet evenings with charity caterers in five French cities
Boulogne-Billancourt, FRANCE, 2016-Oct-18 — /EPR Retail News/ — The Carrefour Foundation gets charities and renowned chefs involved in five major anti-wastage-themed buffet evenings Having turned food into a means of tackling social exclusion, the Carrefour Foundation is now staging anti-wastage-themed buffet evenings with charity caterers in five French cities on 15 October.
Anti-wastage buffet evenings devised by renowned chefs working with charity caterers
On Saturday 15 October in five hypermarkets across France, the Carrefour Foundation will be organizing buffet evenings with the help of a number of renowned chefs and charity caterers. Customers, charities and employees will all be invited to enjoy a friendly gourmet moment together: Ghislaine Arabian will be in Montesson (just west of Paris), Noëmie Honiat will be in Bordeaux, Kevin D’Andrea will be in Lille, Adel Dakkar will be in Aix-en-Provence and Marc Boissieux will be in Ecully (just north-west of Lyon).
Each chef will create an anti-wastage buffet using products that have been taken off store shelves. The partner charity caterer’s workers – employed on job market reintegration schemes – will be in the kitchens: Baluchon, La Table de Cana, Les Paniers de la Mer and La Tablée des Chefs. Tasting will get under way at 8:30 PM!
The Carrefour Foundation has made food aid one of its missions: this event brings together the expertise of these renowned chefs and all the commitment of the caterers and their employees. It serves as an opportunity to show that tackling food wastage can be fun and friendly… and as well as a gourmet experience!
This initiative is being organised within the framework of World Food Day (as well as the national food waste tackling day), which is held every year on 16 October.
