Sustainability
We live the philosophy of Kaizen, which is Japanese for ‘making things better’ and recognise the need to deliver true and lasting change. We believe that business and responsibility go hand in hand.
Taking responsibility is not something new to us. It is part of our DNA and something we have worked with since the very beginning in 1994. In fact, we have trademarked it SushiStainable as our commitment to always improve. We are ambitious, dedicating resources, and monitoring our efforts, but at the same time we understand that we have far to go.
We do not fulfil our potential in our operations alone. With numerous of guests visiting our restaurants every day, we can make a difference in the communities where we operate. We wish to use our work with SushiStainable as a foundation to share our experiences, express our views, inspire others and become wiser on the society we take part in. Therefore, we see our contact with our guests as a direct opportunity to contribute to creating a more sustainable present and future. This is the core of SushiStainable.
Below you can read more about how we make SushiStainable operational.
Our commitment is anchored at the very top through our SushiStainable Policy Commitment, which you can read here.

Environmental, social and economic impact
Produce
Quality – always! We go to great lengths to ensure our guests enjoy the best quality sourced ingredients possible. This a commitment that we refuse to compromise.
Pork from Hestbjerg
We have succeeded in procuring even better pork for Sticks'n'Sushi. The pork is from Hestbjerg Organic and is used for our Buta Yaki yakitori stick.
Packaging
Packaging is necessary to protect and transport our goods. BUT packaging is a key environmental concern because of its low re-use and recycling rates. Therefore, we are constantly seeking new solutions designed for circularity.
Integrity & collaborations
Partnerships for the goals! We believe in the power of collaborations across sectors, institutions and civil society to meet the Sustainable Development Goals.
Employee wellbeing
One studies law, another dreams of becoming a head chef, a third is saving up to travel around the world, and a fourth aspires to become a manager at one of our restaurants. We have an ambition to promote diversity and inclusion and thus employ many varieties of fishes.
Paper
Paper usage is a big way to reduce environmental footprints!
Responsible sourcing
At Sticks'n'Sushi, we have a responsibility to protect the environment and that includes knowing where and how our fish is sourced.
