We believe in Doing Good
The people at Lexington Independents are committed to doing good. This means that alongside serving healthy, delicious food, we take our responsibility seriously to make a positive impact on our communities and our environment.
We believe that when we focus on doing good in areas of food, wellness, people, and our planet, our team members can feel good about what they do and the people we serve will feel good about what they eat. Millions of Americans across the country eat or work with us every day, which means we have millions and millions of reasons to make a difference.
So simply put, we are doing good. Good for you, for the planet, and for everyone’s future.
Good Ambitions
Whether the efforts are big or small, every one of us can do good things today to make tomorrow a little better.
Wellness
Taking care of our team members and those we serve means encouraging healthy minds and bodies. We share valuable wellness and nutrition expertise alongside menus with wholesome foods to support everyone’s health and well-being.
Food
We believe you should feel good about what you eat. Through responsible, ethical sourcing and production methods that are kind to the environment, we continue to increase the sustainability and quality of our ingredients and packaging.
Planet
Reducing harmful food waste and carbon emissions is not an option, it is an absolute. We continue to do better every day through well-informed kitchen practices, food recovery programs, resource conservation, and a focus on renewable energy sources.
People
We value the strength of our communities and the wonderful diversity of the people in them. It is the care for each other matched with each person’s unique experiences, backgrounds and ideas that strengthen us and make us all better.
