Valo Resto Pro ® Trophies

All players from the professional catering sector, whether they offer food or laundry services, have a chance at winning an award for the “Best Environmental Initiative”:

• energy performance

• food waste reduction
• bio-waste management
• training
• equipment waste collection, etc.

The VALO RESTO PRO® Awards are handed out by a jury of individuals from the catering sector's leading organisations (one jury member per organisation) and renowned figures from outside the industry qualified by their present or past activities. Based on a list of specific criteria and their individual expertise, every year this volunteer jury analyses, debates and selects the winners with impartiality and objectivity.
