Grand Catering, the caterer at the Beatrix Theatre Utrecht, aims to be the most durable party caterer. As of October 2009, the entire catering operation has become carbon-neutral.
Grand Catering, the initiator of Duurzaam Gastvrij (Sustainable Hospitality) wants to set a trend, and has become one of the front runners in the catering industry for sustainable catering. The caterer hopes that other caterers will follow his lead, and that it will encourage them to become a member of MVO Nederland (a Dutch organization stimulating corporate social responsibility).
