Stallholder Information & Requirements

Dear [Insert Name],

[Insert Organisation]

With the help of vendors, staff, volunteers and patrons the [Insert Event] has now become a leading waste-accountable event.
Last year, we recycled [Insert %]% of our waste materials and continue to host a clean, green event.

We are planning for waste minimisation by requiring that only reusable or recyclable packaging is used and that vendors
reduce packaging where possible. With stallholder cooperation we will continue to coordinate efforts to collect and sort
recyclables and prevent litter.

Your Role

Your role begins by sourcing only reusable or recyclable packaging from suppliers.
Please note that only plastic codes with the ID [Insert recyclable codes e.g. 1-7] are recyclable at this event.

Please try to:

· Use ceramic or cardboard cups for hot drinks and paper or recyclable plastic cups for cold drinks.

· Use paper or biodegradable (if recycling systems are available) based plates, bowls or reusable crockery instead of plastic disposable plates.

· Minimise packaging with your products, e.g. not offering lids for drinks, offering bulk condiments
(no single serve sugar or sauce sachets) and not offering straws or plastic bags.

· [Other requests]
