Sustainability Goals at Casadei Foods

Good food. Better choices. 100% Vegan.

At Casadei Foods, our commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is rooted in one clear belief: a fairer society begins with fairer food. That’s why every product we make is 100% vegan. No animal exploitation. No compromises. Just great food with a lighter footprint and a bigger mission.

We created our own vegan products from scratch to help shift the needle—making it easier for kitchens and consumers to choose plant-based without sacrificing taste, texture, or versatility.

SUSTAINABILITY GOAL #1: End Hunger & Promote Sustainable Agriculture 

WHAT WE DO

Provide fully plant-based products that support sustainable agriculture   and eliminate dependency on animal farming.

Source ingredients that use significantly fewer resources—vegan cheese production uses up to 90% less water compared to dairy-based   counterparts, according to a study published in the journal Sustainability.

Support a future where food nourishes both people and planet, without causing harm to animals.

Partner with growers who prioritise plant-forward farming practices that maintain soil health and biodiversity.

SUSTAINABILITY GOAL #2:

 Ensure Healthy Lives and Promote Well-Being

WHAT WE DO

Help reduce air pollution and associated health risks by eliminating animal agriculture from our supply chain. Plant-based foods contribute significantly less ammonia and methane—two major air quality pollutants—compared to animal-based foods, as confirmed by a 2023 study published in Nature Communications.

Empower people to make ethical, climate-conscious food choices that don’t come at the cost of animal suffering.

Champion a kitchen culture built on compassion and fairness, from the food we create to the relationships we build.

 SUSTAINABILITY GOAL #3:

 Ensure Sustainable Consumption and   Production

 WHAT WE DO

 Deliver chef-ready vegan products that   streamline service and   reduce environmental impact.

 Avoid ingredients that fuel deforestation or resource depletion.

 Continuously reduce our carbon and water footprint by staying   entirely plant-based.

 


SUSTAINABILITY GOAL #4:

 Take Urgent Action on Climate Change

WHAT WE DO

Our vegan mozzarella and entire product line produce significantly fewer greenhouse gas emissions than animal-based alternatives—up to 71% fewer emissions compared to dairy cheese, as demonstrated in a systematic literature review published in the journal Sustainability.”

Support clean air and cleaner waterways by avoiding industrial livestock farming, which is a top driver of environmental degradation.

Educate and collaborate with foodservice partners to lower emissions and create climate-smart menus.

Advocate for a just transition to plant-based food systems that are fairer for animals, people, and the planet.

Why It Matters

Producing 1 kg of vegan cheese can save up to 5,000 litres of water compared to dairy cheese, according to a study published in the journal Sustainability, which found that plant-based cheese alternatives require up to 97% less water than their dairy counterparts.

A global shift toward plant-based diets could reduce food-related greenhouse gas emissions by up to 70% by 2050, according to a landmark study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).”

Every vegan choice is a stand for animal welfare, environmental justice, and systemic change. 

Casadei Foods is about more than food. It’s about building the future we want to live in—one dish at a time. 

Choose vegan. Choose fairness.
