To help reduce single-use plastics, foodpanda has partnered with Environment and Conservation Fund (ECF) and WWF-Hong Kong to roll out a reusable packaging programme.

Under the programme, foodpanda restaurant partners will start using reusable food containers when packing their customers’ orders.

Foodpanda will provide 8,000 reusable food containers to about 40 partner restaurants in the first phase of the programme which will last 11 months.

Customers will have to pay a deposit of $10 per container once the order is confirmed, regardless if it’s a delivery or a pick-up order.

The deposit will be refunded directly and immediately to the user’s Octopus wallet upon returning the container. Containers can be returned at the following collection points:

Central

3/F, One Exchange Square, 8 Connaught Place, Central (TBC)
1/F, Standard Chartered Bank Building, 4-4A Des Voeux Road Central, Central
G/F, World-Wide House, 19 Des Voeux Road Central, Central
