Last month i profiled an eco-friendly pizzeria which had delivery drivers in electric bikes called Galactic Pizza. Today i want to tell you about Pizza Fusion.

Pizza Fusion, based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida has been in operation since 2006. This organic pizza franchise is a model of eco-friendliness in both their food products and their business activities. Started up by two college buds, their aim is create a business that is both profitable and socially responsible. This goal has led them to the Pizza Fusion concept, an eatery where the following initiatives take place:

• Delivering their food in company owned hybrid vehicles
• Powering their stores, corporate office and website 100% with renewable wind energy
• Recycling and giving customers discounts for bringing back their pizza boxes to recycle them
• Using only eco-friendly cleaners to sanitize all their stores
• Using 100% post consumer recycled paper in all their collateral
• Printing their collateral with soy inks
• Designing and constructing their stores with renewable, reusable, and
  recycled products according to the LEED construction rating system.
• Serving their food in biodegradable containers made
  from 100% corn starch which are designed to decompose in landfills in 30
  days
• Providing staff with eco-apparel made from 100% organic cotton
• Hosting free environmentally based classes for kids every third Thursday of the month
  that educates on the importance of eating organic and recycling
• Donating money to local environmental causes

I only wish their was a Pizza Fusion in my town, let’s just say that as a vegetarian, i would patronize alot. I love their concept, their organic ingredients list, their hip and groovy restaurant look, and most of all that they opted to create a socially responsible business. Beautiful.
