SAN FRANCISCO ENVIRONMENT DEPARTMENT:
San Francisco food service businesses -
The San Francisco Environment Department has 3 free programs to assist food service businesses. These programs help restaurants and cafes switch from using disposable dishes to reusable ones. Here is how it works:
1. Restaurants and Cafes: If you own a restaurant or cafe, you can get up to $700 to switch from disposable to reusable foodware for dine-in services. You will also receive free advice and help to make the change easier. Over 150 businesses in San Francisco are already part of this program, saving between $3,000 to $20,000 annually. Schedule your free consultation today by filling out the form at SFReuse.org.
2. Large Institutions: If you own an entertainment venue, hotel, school, health facility, mall or other large institution, you can get up to $5,000. This money can be used to switch to reusable foodware or partner with a service that helps with reuse. 8 grants are available on a first come, first service basis. Submit an interest form.
3. Dishwashers: Get up to $2,500 toward leasing or buying an automatic dishwasher, to help you build reusable foodware infrastructure for on-site dining. Submit an interest form.
