CELEBRATING EARTH DAY

INVESTING IN OUR PLANET STARTS WITH US

Dillons partners with Quest® Proganics™ to divert excess food and other organic waste away from the landfills. The process recycles 100% of the organic waste, which is turned into nutrient-rich compost. In this ZERO WASTE approach, Dillons invites you to receive free compost in celebration of Earth Day 2021.

PARTNERING FOR ZERO WASTE

  • Kroger and Dillons have partnered with Quest Proganics to support Kroger’s Zero Hunger / Zero Waste social impact plan
  • The companies are working to achieve zero food waste by 2025 in all stores and across the company
  • The plan also strives to transform Kroger communities and improve health for millions of Americans by 2025

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

Using Quest Proganics, Dillons keeps more than 4,900 tons of organic waste out of the landfill annually. This avoids 3,039 metric tons of GHG (Green House Gass), the equivalent to the carbon sequestered by 50,250 tree seedlings grown for 10 years.
