Cardiff Met first in Wales to be awarded Gold rating with the Sustainable Restaurant Association
Cardiff Met is the first university in Wales and the fifth in the UK to receive a three star rating by the UK's leading sustainability accreditation and membership body for the hospitality and food service sector.
The Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA) has awarded Cardiff Met's catering team a three star 'Food Made Good' rating – the maximum rating in this category.
The three stars rating, regarded as the Michelin stars of sustainability, is achieved by completing a rigorous and wide-ranging assessment that covers the three pillars of sustainability: sourcing, society and environment.
Cardiff Met's Catering and Hospitality Service Manager, Andrew Phelps, commented: "We are delighted to be awarded the three star rating by the SRA.
"This accolade is a great credit to the catering team, recognising their hard work in the last year, and showing their commitment to the University's wider strategic plan."
