Sustainability

As a family business, rooted in our community, Wrights of Howth recognises our responsibility to staff, partners, customers and the people who live around our operations to do business in a way that preserves our environment and treats everyone fairly.

Our strategy is based on best-practice environmental stewardship in waste, water and energy. We’ve already made strides in reducing our environmental impact, particularly in the area of food waste, but there is more work to do.

We are committed to reducing our food and general waste to zero by 2025 and to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050 in line with the Irish state’s legally binding commitment. We know we need to change how our industry and the world works but we are committed to helping create a circular economy.
