To further champion sustainability and greener lifestyles, foodpanda has kicked off 2019 by launching ‘Better than Plastic’, a range of reusable items that will be gifted to customers with orders from select restaurants.
Beyond plastic, foodpanda is also inviting customers to adopt ‘Meat Free Mondays’ with free delivery from select vegetarian and vegan restaurants every Monday, as well as a host of special offers from leading healthy restaurants.
Laura Kantor, Head of Marketing and Sustainability at foodpanda said: “It’s amazing to see how just one small initiative can make such a huge difference.
“With 1 million cutlery sets saved to date regionally through our opt in cutlery function, and other food delivery companies following suit, I’m excited to see what we can achieve in the years to come.
“At foodpanda, we are committed to driving genuine change and the Better Than Plastic range will make it even easier for customers to go green and reduce our reliance on disposable plastics.”
Cementing foodpanda’s commitment to sustainability, foodpanda has partnered with popular restaurants to help customers further reduce the usage of disposable plastics.
Jewel Coffee, SaladStop!, Boost Juice and A Poke Theory will gift customers a host of reusable items including a metal straw with cleaner, a foodpanda KeepCup, a Better than Plastic cotton tote bag and a metal cutlery set of chopsticks, a fork and a spoon.
Running from now through to 31st January 2019 (or while stocks last), when customers place order with the following restaurants, they will receive a reusable gift, as follows:
| No | Restaurant | Free Gift | T&Cs |
| 1 | Jewel Coffee | KeepCup (worth $26) | Minimum order value $25 |
| 2 | SaladStop! | Set of re-usable cutlery (worth $15) | Minimum order value $20 |

Beyond cutting down plastic consumption, foodpanda is also helping Singaporeans make more environmentally-friendly dining choices.
With #fpMeatFreeMondays, foodpanda is making it even easier for Singaporeans to reduce their meat intake and do their bit for the environment at the same time.
Customers can get free delivery every Monday with orders (a minimum of $25, limited to 1,000 total redemptions) from selected vegetarian and vegan restaurants.
Customers can use the promo MFMONDAYS at participating restaurants like VeganBurg, Hello Baby and Afterglow.
To make healthier eating more exciting, foodpanda has partnered with leading healthy restaurants Jewel Coffee, Boost Juice, A Poke Theory, Simply Wraps, YOLO, and Lean Bento to offer a host of promotions such as 10% off and free healthy snacks.
