Just Salad, the
fast-casual restaurant concept serving healthy food at an affordable
price, has signed a contract with Budderfly, a leading energy management
outsourcing company, to implement energy efficiency upgrades at its
stores and significantly reduce the company's carbon footprint. The
upgrades will be made at three pilot locations in New York City and will
focus on lighting, HVAC, and refrigeration. According to Budderfly, the
expected energy savings at these stores would reduce their carbon
emissions by 91.2 metric tons of CO2 equivalent annually, which is
roughly equal to the greenhouse gas emissions of 100,500 pounds of coal,
based on EPA data.
This partnership is an important milestone in Just Salad's ambitious
sustainability agenda and furthers the company's core mission to promote
human and planetary health. The restaurant chain seeks to lower its
carbon footprint by reducing food and plastic waste, offering
plant-based, low-emissions menu items, and increasing energy efficiency. Budderfly will provide 100% of the capital to install, maintain, and
monitor the energy efficiency upgrades, reflecting the company's
innovative business model. The technology and expertise provided is
guaranteed to produce immediate usage and cost reductions for Just
Salad, continuing and expanding the savings throughout the length of the
relationship to provide shared benefits for both companies. Nick Kenner, Founder and CEO of Just Salad, said: "This is a
financial and environmental win-win that reflects Just Salad's
commitment to operationalizing sustainability at scale. We are excited
to install state-of-the-art energy efficiency solutions in our stores
that will reduce unnecessary costs and wasted energy." "We don't believe businesses should have to spend their own money to
go green and save," said Al Subbloie, Budderfly founder & CEO. "By
providing 100% of the capital, managing all of the technology, and
guaranteeing the results, Budderfly ensures that our customers enjoy all
the benefits with none of the risk and hassle, and we're excited to do
that for Just Salad." Sandra Noonan, Chief Sustainability Officer at Just Salad, said:
"Buildings are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, and it is
essential that we seek energy solutions that reduce our carbon
footprint. I look forward to achieving measurable emissions reductions
through our Budderfly partnership." About Budderfly Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Shelton, CT, Budderfly brings an
