The transition to more sustainable food service practices is gaining momentum across the country, and Virginia is leading the charge with its foam-free initiatives. The Virginia Department of Environmental Quality’s Foam-Free Resources highlight the environmental and operational benefits of moving away from polystyrene food service containers, underscoring the need for businesses to adapt to these changes effectively.

For those in the food service industry, this shift presents an opportunity to align with evolving regulations and demonstrate environmental stewardship. However, making these changes requires not only an understanding of the alternatives available but also training your team to implement them seamlessly while maintaining food safety and service quality.

This is where PASS Training can help. At PASS Training, we offer comprehensive food service training programs designed to empower your team to navigate these changes with confidence. Our courses include:
