Series 1: The Right Pack & Better Processing
The first series of The MULTIVAC Podcast saw discussions on recycle week, sustainability in the packaging industry and OPRL. Host, Elliot Chrisp, and the team help listeners to understand these topics, and answer questions to help them learn more about making changes to support them.
We also dove into the world of alternative proteins with a special episode for Veganuary, where we were joined by guest speaker Philip Pearce, from Green Rocket Café in Bath. Philip and the team taste tested the most popular vegan products on supermarket shelves and answered the question everyone wants to know: are meat alternatives really the better option?

Series 2: Navigating Sustainability
For 2024 and beyond, sustainability is at the core of what we do at MULTIVAC, and the second series of our podcast will dive deep into the subject, covering multiple areas of the business.
Series 2, Episode 1: How can we tackle food waste in the UK?
For the first episode of our second series, our host Elliot Chrisp is joined by fellow MULTIVAC UK colleague and Director of Key Accounts, David Church, and Kitty Langton, Press and PR Manager from FareShare UK.
Fareshare UK is the UK's largest national network of charitable food redistributors who take good quality surplus food from all areas of the food industry, and get it to nearly 8,500 frontline charities and community groups.
Believing that no food should go to waste, FareShare redistribute food that is nutritious and good to eat, which is then turned into meals. The food reaches a range of charities across the UK, including school breakfast clubs, older people's lunch clubs, homeless shelters, and community cafes. Every week enough food is provided to create almost a million meals for vulnerable people. Pretty impressive, right?
Answering a selection of questions which have been asked by our fellow listeners, Elliot, David and Kitty look at how much food is wasted, how food manufacturers and UK households can help, and what UK retailers are doing to encourage a reduction.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy a cuppa with the next episode of The MULTIVAC Podcast!
