Hong Kong is a cosmopolitan metropolis that embodies both Eastern and Western traditions. Due to its rich cultural diversity, the city offers a wide variety of international cuisines which are served in more than ten thousand restaurants and food outlets.
By establishing an effective and long-lasting environmental management culture, the restaurants can improve their own images and provide better working conditions for their employees, as well as help reduce pollution and thereby contribute to the betterment of our environment.

In order to protect Hong Kong's environment, the Environmental Protection Department (EPD), apart from enforcing environmental legislation, has launched since 2000 the "Partnership Programme" which aims to encourage the restaurant and food business sector to comply with local environmental laws and take actions to prevent pollution, as well as to disseminate information on environmental protection concerning the restaurant trade.
