Better Business Challenge: Beer Run
The goal of the Better Business Challenge, a friendly competition among businesses to learn about different ways to incorporate sustainability practices, is for each business to recognize the current environmental impact of its consumption and performance, take steps towards reducing these impacts, and in doing so have a more positive impact on the local community. As consultants for Beer Run—a local restaurant, alcohol retailer, and our assigned business partner in the Better Business Challenge— we met with our contact, John Woodriff, for at least 5 hours each month in order to assist the restaurant in adopting sustainable business practices.

The goal of the Better Business Challenge, a friendly competition among businesses to learn about different ways to incorporate sustainability practices, is for each business to recognize the current environmental impact of its consumption and performance, take steps towards reducing these impacts, and in doing so have a more positive impact on the local community. As consultants for Beer Run—a local restaurant, alcohol retailer, and our assigned business partner in the Better Business Challenge— we met with our contact, John Woodriff, for at least 5 hours each month in order to assist the restaurant in adopting sustainable business practices.

During this semester, we have researched creative opportunities for sustainability, collaborated with Mr. Woodriff to highlight the avenues he believes are most feasible and interesting, and presented attainable and concrete action items. We believe that we built a strong foundation for Mr. Woodriff and envision that he will implement the recommendations the following semester.
