At Nimbusgården AB, we pride ourselves on working with sustainability in a way that suits our small business here on Öckerö. We know that every little step counts, and we strive to minimize our impact on the environment while offering our guests a genuine and sustainable dining experience. We work daily to make sustainable choices that are both good for our planet and for our local community.
As a small restaurant, it is important for us to think about how we can reduce our ecological impact. We carefully select our suppliers and make sure to use local and sustainable ingredients whenever possible. By working with local producers, we both support the local economy and reduce our environmental impact through shorter transportation distances.
We actively work to reduce our food waste. By carefully planning our menus and creatively reusing leftover ingredients, we ensure that nothing goes to waste. We also use environmentally friendly packaging and disposable materials that can be recycled.
Reducing our energy consumption is also important to us, which is why we have invested in solar panels across our entire site, saving resources and keeping costs down.
Our staff are an important part of our business, and we make sure that everyone who works here at Nimbusgården AB feels involved and appreciated. We offer a safe and stimulating work environment where we invest in developing our employees' skills and promoting a good working climate. Our small group of 8 permanent employees work closely together to create a positive experience both for our guests and for each other.
We are also committed to our local community here on Öckerö and are happy to collaborate with other local businesses and initiatives that work to strengthen the community and create a more sustainable future for us all.
Running a small restaurant means that we have to be careful about our financial choices, which is why we are transparent about our prices and our purchases. By using high quality ingredients and working efficiently, we aim to maintain a sustainable economic model that allows us to continue to grow and contribute to our local community.
We also want to encourage our guests to make sustainable choices, and we often offer options that are both good for the environment and for health. We believe that a small change can make a big difference and that together we can create a more sustainable dining experience.
We at Nimbusgården AB are determined to continue developing our sustainability work. By constantly evaluating our routines and looking for new ways to work sustainably, we hope to contribute to a more sustainable future for Öckerö and all our guests. Our ambition is to not only be a place for good food but also an example of how small businesses can make a big difference when it comes to sustainability.
Our overnight guests will be able to sort their waste in our new environmental room, which will be completed in 2025.
