This year’s gala will reflect a trend seen across the world, sustainability, which is also in alignment with one of the Michelin Group’s key commitments: Sustainable Mobility. The company envisions a circular economy to preserve the planet’s resources by reducing, reusing, renewing and recycling the materials needed to produce the Company’s products and services, to avoid leaving a lasting environmental impact.
To make this possible, one of its visions for the next 30 years is for its tires to incorporate up to 80 percent sustainable materials and for 100 percent of end-of-life tires to be recycled or reused as fuel.
Fittingly, this year’s gala dinner is themed «Kitchens of Progression», signifying a shift towards sustainable dining and culinary practices. Chefs involved in the preparation are implored to procure ingredients from trusted suppliers and organizations that practice ethical and sustainable farming and be mindful about reducing food wastage – Michelin aims to make this a move in the culinary world, in line with another aspect of its business.
