Makro to offer oil recycling service

www.makro.co.uk

Makro will be launching a new scheme to recycle the waste cooking oil produced by pubs.

The cash & carry group has said that it will accept used cooking oil that is in the original five, 10 and 20-litre containers, in its “Love the Pub” promotion. Makro vouchers will be made available to participating pubs, which can be redeemed at various outlets.

Allard Sjollema, Makro’s commercial director, commented: “The roll-out of oil recycling means not only are we helping our stores and customers’ businesses demonstrate their green credentials, we’re also rewarding them for this too.”

Sjollema went on to say: “We’ll be giving our customers 10p for every litre of used vegetable oil that is returned to the store, and we are confident that this will make quite a difference, especially in today’s climate where every penny counts.

The company executive noted that the scheme was part of Makro’s commitment to the environment, and that it was involved in pursuing a number of green ideas so that all of the waste oil it collects finds a use.

From 1 July, bespoke offers on drink and food will be featured in the next stage of the Makro’s Love the Pub campaign.
