Tell Sysco to cut its plastic waste
Every year, a staggering 8 million metric tons of plastic waste end up in the world’s oceans.1
Sysco is the world’s largest food distributor.
To protect our planet from plastic pollution, it’s critical that we stem the tide of waste. That’s why we’re calling on Sysco, the world’s largest food distributor, to eliminate single-use plastic packaging from its operations.

Plastic is polluting our planet. Sysco can make a difference.
Plastic packaging is our country’s single largest contributor to the plastic pollution crisis.2 Every day, plastic wrappers and bags are discarded into landfills and the greater environment. From there, plastic waste works its way into lakes, rivers, and oceans.
Sysco can make a difference on this issue. As the world’s largest food distributor, Sysco can reduce plastic pollution by curbing the amount used in its operations. Sysco can also set a positive environmental example for others in the industry to follow.
Take action to tell Sysco to help tackle plastic pollution.
We’re not the only ones that think this. In a recent vote, 92% of Sysco’s shareholders supported a resolution for the company to reduce its plastic packaging.
With your support, we can bolster these shareholders’ calls and demonstrate widespread support for curbing plastic pollution. Will you sign onto our petition?
