Moreton’s new green network
The Rotary Club of Redcliffe Sunrise is working with Green Street and the Redcliffe Peninsula Chamber of Commerce to establish a Redcliffe Sustainable Business Network.
Being supported by a Regional Economic Development (RED) grant from Moreton Bay Council, the Rotary Club came up with this initiative to bring together a collective of enterprises to promote, practise and share how to have a go at being sustainable and create positive impact.
Any business operating in the greater Redcliffe area that want to improve sustainability can join the network, including start-ups and community enterprises.
Through the network, businesses can save energy costs, reduce waste, be more competitive, manage risks, improve processes and develop new, fruitful partnerships.
Members connect via networking and learning events, supported by resources from the Green Street online platform, building skills, sharing insights and trading in a circular economy.
Business can also promote their efforts to customers and benefit from network promotion activities and through supplied stickers or signs.
Peninsula Distilling, who just opened on July 6, has recently been named a Redcliffe Sustainable Business Network ‘Champion’ and a favoured role model for other like-minded local businesses, due to their use of local products and suppliers, usage of renewable energy through solar panels, and implementing some waste management mitigation initiatives.
To get the code for free membership, email howard@greenstreet.net. au with your name, business name and location.
