As part of its mission to be a sustainability leader in the quick-serve restaurant space, New York Fries has announced its poutine packaging will now be made from 100 percent recyclable and compostable materials. Users can enjoy the eco-friendly packaging in small, medium, and large sizes.
New York Fries announced that its new eco-friendly poutine packaging will reduce over 6.4 million containers and 1.5 million plastic lids from landfills annually. And this new packaging solution is only one of the steps New York Fries has taken to reduce it's environmental footprint -- the brand also stopped distributing plastic straws in favor of compostable paper straws and plans to take further eco-conscious steps in the future.
