Powered by one team
430+ sustainability changemakers dedicated to one shared goal – making a positive difference for themselves, our clients and the planet.
Sustainable Energy First have been a valued business partner of Burger King since we acquired the master franchise rights in 2017.
Over that time, we have evolved from monitoring and reducing energy consumption to buying more renewable energy and ultimately our own power purchase arrangements with a dedicated solar scheme and wind farm partnership which was unique in the UK. We value the forward-looking support we get from SE First and look forward to working with them in the future.
