SUSTAINABILITY

Embracing Environmental & Social Responsibility

Taking green initiatives and finding ways to give back to the community all relate to the ABURI corporate philosophy of Ningenmi, “to respect the people and environment surrounding us.” Whether it is as simple as cutting back on water bottles, getting involved with charitable contributions and community causes, or changing a lightbulb, we see every gesture as a critical step in operating a more thoughtful and sustainable business.

Vivreau Water System

The hospitality industry references “food miles,” and the water industry references “water miles.” Transporting bottled water from Europe and the Pacific Islands negatively impacts our environment. Not only is water being transported by road, creating congestion and pollution, but there is also the issue surrounding glass and plastic packaging waste. That is why in 2010, ABURI invested in the Vivreau System to filter and bottle tap water on-site.

Community Engagement

Giving back to the community that supports us is essential, which is why we do our utmost best to support events hosted by local businesses and charity initiatives throughout the year. Whether sponsoring gift certificates, catering to events, or volunteering, we are proud to engage our local community. For consideration, please submit your requests to: mikutoronto@aburirestaurants.com, and we will do our best to help where we can.
