We are committed to creating a sustainable global future. We balance profit and purpose. We put our employees and customers first and grow our business to create a cycle of doing more good for the planet and society while we grow. By reviewing our practices, establishing better waste management initiatives, and evaluating our overall supply chains, we are able to take measurable steps to creating a greener future.
Boarderie ships using corrugated cardboard boxes made from 70% recycled materials which are 100% curbside recyclable. Our insulated liners are made from 100% recycled fiber material and are 100% curbside recyclable. Boarderie uses drain safe ice packs which can either be refrozen and reused or cut open and poured down the kitchen sink while the plastic from the ice packs can be recycled as well. Our bamboo trays and cutlery kits are biodegradable and the Acaci wood boards are a reusable keepsake item. Our cardboard that we receive from vendor shipments is recycled.
All of our excess cheese and meat remainders from the production process are donated twice a week to The Lord’s Place and are repurposed in meals to feed the homeless. Boarderie donates over 300 pounds a week (over 15,600 pounds per year) which will feed 7,800 people this year.
We value our work and being a part of a team that feels like family. We want everyone to have this sense of purpose, that’s why we hire adults with developmental disabilities from The Arc of Palm Beach County. These team members earn the same wages as the rest of the team, and perform necessary tasks such as taping shipping boxes, loading trucks and sorting brochures. We believe everyone deserves the chance to feel part of something and know the sense of satisfaction and purpose that comes with productive work.
