We’ve shifted our marketing activity away from printed materials into almost exclusively digital assets, changing from paper to digital feedback forms. We’ve also introduced a digital system in our kitchens to cut back on paper wastage; our kitchen team now use a live digital screen for schedules and menus, instead of printing them.

The Retail Operations Team at 快播视频 are committed to delivering an exciting variety of food to enhance the student, staff and visitor experience. Our aim is to produce food that is nutritionally balanced, tasty, sustainable and affordable to the University community making healthy eating easier.

We follow five key principles:

1. Choice: Ensure a range of university-operated, national brands, local businesses, and temporary food and drink offers to meet the range of cultural, dietary, and lifestyle needs of our students, staff, and visitors.
2. Safe: Ensuring that University food operations produce and supply food to the highest safety standards including for customers with allergies and intolerances. To ensure that all operators on campus have a minimum 4-star environmental health rating.
3. Price Range: Ensure that the range of choices for students and staff meets their varied budgets and in particular, that affordable choice is available.
4. Supply Chain: The University will engage with tenants and food suppliers on campus to improve the sustainability of their product offer. Internally, sustainability standards are embedded in tenders and contracts to drive improvements within the University’s supply chain.
5. Engagement: Educating our university community to understand how food and the choices they make have in creating healthy and sustainable lifestyles. This will be supported by engaging with relevant internal and external stakeholders to stay abreast of best practice in food sustainability.
